Power & Manipulation

I don't believe that I was born for politics. The bickering back and forth, the protesting, and "game" it has just no significant pull for me. In fact, most of the time I am rather put off by the whole of it. I do, however, like the details. Give me facts, lots of them, and honesty. But can you really have honesty in politics? To me it is much more of a power struggle - who is bigger, more important, on top more often that matters. Then in retrospect it also seems to be who is the stronger manipulator of the facts. Both issues are things I can't really stand: Power and Manipulation. Neither are valuable and yet both seem to be centralized in the political world. A month or so ago my neighbors were outside sharing good reads with me. Several of them chimed in that I needed to read Angels and Demons and the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. I called up my father-in-law and borrowed the books. Since, I have already watched the Hollywood version of the Da Vinci Code I choose to...

At the top of my "to read later" pile...

I am not currently reviewing a book/author or even reading Christian fiction at the moment. It is an interesting break from the normal and I am enjoying selecting the titles right now. Since I rarely read in the secular market it is often difficult for me to find authors that are enjoyable or to my tastes. In May or perhaps early of this year I was lent a copy of Twilight by Stephanie Meyers . Wait! Hold on! If you are completely rolling your eyes at this point and believe that I have joined the teen band wagon let me get just a few words in edgewise here. Thank you. As I was saying, I was lent a copy of Twilight a while back. I had no real desire to read it because, as you, I had no desire to join the throng of teens and even pre-teens obsessing over this book/saga. The copy I had received was at the top of my "to read later" pile, so I picked it up and turned to page one. Please understand that I am not a fan of Vampires or even that sort of thriller market. I enjoy ...

Starting off the New Year with a great line of reading can put things both on the right foot and bring a good balance to life. Yet, when I walk in the book store I see the rows of books and know that, like you, it is often hard to find what to read. Having a suggestion or the name of an author really helps. But what if they have nothing new? Where to start? This can be a dilemma if you are like me and purchase your books instead of use the old faithful library card. Speaking of which I am sure mine has expired. So, that said, I can tell you that I have a small stack of books that have book marks in them about three chapters in...Yep! They are not read...they are waiting for me to brave the pages of boredom that they seem to hold. However, it is once and a while that I pick an unknown author and find a jewel or a diamond in the rough. Denise Hunter is one of these. You can visit her website at www.denisehunterbooks.com or visit your local library or bookstore. She has a new novel about ...
