| There is a "Reading List" thread in the sticky part of this section of the forum where most people post what they are reading (not that you can't post here).
http://www.christianhardmusic.com/t3357p140-reading-list-2011
I've read a few of Alcorn's fiction books, but haven't seen that one yet.
I always thought it might be cool of we could get most/all of our members here reading the same book at the same time. Might make for some fun discussion.

I'd try reading the same book as everyone else. You'd have to set up a schedule to keep faster readers from jumping ahead and leaving behind some of the slower ones, though._________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

I started Friday to read "True Devotion - Dee Henderson |

For some reason I seriously doubt that, you are an avid reader. Do you read most of your books in Dutch?

There would definitely need to be a schedule, it might take some of us a few weeks to even find/buy/borrow a copy of said book.

| Yes, I've once read a book in English, but I think some of the books you read are translated so I can read them too.
It will be fun to all read the same book and later talk about it.
One has this and an other has that.
Let's find a book I can read too, make a schedule and then read ... |

Maybe over the Christmas break I will try to drum up some interest for this. I will start a new thread with some suggestions (don't let me forget).

| Fundy while I am sure those are all fine books, I think we might pick something with a few more words to read as a board.

| When we have found a book we all are going to read, I'll have to look at the library if they have it there.
Maybe I have to order it if it's translated. |
