Books read last quarter:
1. Chronicles of Narnia, Magicians Nephew 4/5
2. Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe 4/5
3. Chronicles of Narnia, A Horse and his Boy 3.5/5
4. Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian 4/5
5. Chronicles of Narnia, Voyage of the Dawntreader 5/5

I am reading the Narnia series for the first time and loving it.

6. Inferno; Dante 3/5

A very tough read, and very freaky. Imagine Greek Mythology meets Roman Catholicism. It had some pretty freaky images. I kept sayinng to myself, if this was made into a movie, it would have to be seriously edited to come down to R rating.

7. Black, Ted Dekker 5/5
8. Red, Ted Dekker 3.5/5
9. White, Ted Dekker 4/5

I read the Circle. I am NOT a big fan of Christian fiction (by the way why are all womens Christian fiction in the setting of the 1800's?) BUT this was an exception. When asked to describe it to others I said, "Imagine the show 24, meets 12 Monkeys, meets Narnia, meets Matrix, and then is turned into Christian Fiction." Black was the best by far of the series, and it seemed to go downhill in RED and then White pretty much redeemed the series.

10. The Hidden Power of Electronic Culture, Shane Hipps 4/5

Eye opening and educational

11. Hold on to you N.U.T.s, a Relational Guide for Men, Wayne Levine 5/5

Love the title! And this was a great book for guys to read.

12. The Way of the Heart, Henri Nouwen 5/5
