What I’m Reading

I’m rubbish at book reviews, but I read (well, listen since I mostly do the audio book thing at work) a LOT, so I thought I’d make a page with my current favorite reads on it.  I prefer books that are clean, with little to no swearing or fornication/adultery, and put an asterik beside the few that pass this test (although I don’t guarantee to be 100% accurate–some I may not remember), and though some may have rape in them (Room and Kite Runner) and have heart-wrenching circumstances (Hunger Games), none are not very vulgar otherwise.  I will update this list monthly so check back from time to time for more good books.
