The kids and I are reading Lord of the Rings out loud (again).
Dear hubby and the kids and I, all together, are reading the entire Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy trilogy.
For private reading, I have The Gulag Archipelago that I’m trudging through (it’s verbose, but very interesting.)

Untold Stories of World War IIWho is the author?
Or can you give the ISBN?
I can't find a specific book with that title.
There are hundreds with so-called untold stories, but that is not the title.
Thanks.

Reading Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes.I have that on my nightstand. It's a bucket list item for me to read it in the original Spanish. There's a lot of dust on it right now - the book and the Spanish, I'm afraid.

Oh, and I’m slowly getting through Judy Wood’s book ‘Where Did The Towers Go’. There is so much evidence in that book that it takes at least two times thorugh it to get the full picture of the lies we have been fed regarding 911.

Yes, she does get repetitive. I skipped over most of John Galt’s speech because of it.

I have this weird habit of reading several books at the same time. Right now I’m reading “One Second After” (reread), “Stonewalled,” “Shooter” by Jack Coughlin (reread).
No Kindle or other reader. I enjoy turning the pages in a hardback book.

I have Kindle Unlimited. If you read quite a bit it is well worth the $10.00 a month.

I am reading Overcoming Sinful Anger by Rev. T. G. Morrow. Paperback copy for the one who asked. If a Kindle version is a LOT cheaper, I may get it, but I still prefer paper. It takes me forever to finish a book anymore. I suspect I will have more reading time when the kids grow up and move out. :-)

Killing Patton. Excellent read.
To: DoodleDawg
I was staunchly paper reader but since getting an ipad several years ago now, I only read on there. Immediate ability to download a book in seconds is what sold me, instead of waiting to have one delivered, also much easier than hauling books around when you travel.
I just finished Rod Dreher’s How Dante Can Save Your Life: The Life-Changing Wisdom of History’s Greatest Poem. And just started Kirsten Power’s The Silencing: How the Left is Killing Free Speech.
