So here's the new blog. After this post I will be reviewing books. I'll review books I read in the course of my work as a minister (mostly religious type books), books I read for pleasure (mostly mystery and western type genre fiction), books I read to my kids (you get the idea). Don't worry about visiting every day, I'm a slow reader and will not review a book until I'm done. If you have some suggestions for books to review, I'd be glad to take a look. My first review will be for a book I had the privelege of prepublication review. Feel free to comment on the books and on the reviews themselves. If you'd like to guest review, email me and we'll see what we can work out. Most of all, enjoy the reviews.
I love to read. I do it for business and for pleasure. Here you will be able to enjoy my views about the books I read. You are welcome to read and comment on the books or the comments that I make about the books.
