I started this month off with a bang, but I got so busy mid-month that I hardly read at all.
Change of Heart, by Jodi Picoult
This is the second book I've read by this author and I enjoyed it. Both books I've read by Picoult question some beliefs held by mainstream Christianity and present the beliefs of other religions. Educational, sometimes thought provoking, and a good read. This particular book deals with a girl who needs a new heart and the man who wants to donate his, the man convicted of murdering the girl's sister.
Raw Food Primer, by Alex Ferrera
A lot of women on the Sonlight forums eat a raw diet and I just wanted to see some raw recipes. I'm not going raw, but we could all afford to eat more produce!
Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust, by Immaculee Ilibagiza
This was an eye-opening read from a survivor of the Rwandan Holocaust in 1994. Most of the author's family was murdered and she spent three months hiding in a tiny (I think it was 3'x5') bathroom with seven other women while her country was destroyed by genocide. Ilibagiza is honest and gracious, though no one would blame her for being bitter and resentful.
