Journeys of a Catholic Poster Girl

Meant to post these here and at the bucket, but instead…not so much. So go

here 

Photos of the renovations and my book collection.

I finally received both Reason to Believe by Scott Hahn (one of my all-time favorite authors) and B XVI’s Jesus of Nazareth. I am looking forward to gobbling them up quite soon (even though I am also working on the Jane Project…whew!). With surgery this week I am sure I’ll have lots of reading time on my hands. Look for reviews/notes/etc. soon. I may start the Hahn book tonight since I tend to move through his works a lot faster than I do the Pope’s!

Also, if you’re reading (or have read), these too, feel free to comment!

Yes the books are never ending….

I love this meme, from Fr. Z and the Hermit. So even though no one’s tagged me I’m doing it, darn it!

Three fiction books everyone should read:
1) Jane, Pride and Prejudice
2) Michael Cunningham, The Hours
3) Milton, Paradise Lost

Three non-fiction books everyone should read:
1) Thomas Howard, On Being Catholic (even if you’re not Catholic, dag nab bit)
2) David McCullough, John Adams or 1776 (depending on your stamina)
3) JPII, Crossing the Threshold of Hope

Three authors everyone should read:
1) Jane! Jane! Jane!
2) Dostoevsky (at least once)
