- The Rapture of Canaan by Sheri Reynolds. Finished
8/9. This was difficult reading for me, because while it went to far
extremes of religious fanaticism and isolation, many of the issues it
dealt with were familiar and dredged up anxious feelings from growing
up. Notable Quote: "Grudges are bad things,
Ninah," she said at last. "There’s only so much room in one heart. You
can fill it up with love or you can fill it with resentment. But every
bit of resentment you hold takes space away from the love. And the
resentment don’t do no good noway, but look what love can do" (292).
- Ferney by James Long. Finished 8/18, thoughts.
This is my second "love crosses all barriers of time" book this summer,
and while The Time Travelor’s Wife is still a favorite read for this
summer, this book ties it I think–though it is about reincarnation
rather than time travel.
