I've always been an avid reader, and my son bought me a kindle last Christmas. Didn't think I'd get on with it coz I'm old and just like the whole feel of real books. But I have! I cleared out the living room and donated all my books (well, almost all) to a local charity shop. I actually now really like it. I can read in bed because it has back-lighting. I normally have about three books on the go at one time.
1. 'Storm Proof' by John Hagee. A great devotional. Very positive.
2. 'The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment' by Jeremiah Burroughs. Rather obscure, written in 1648, but it's fascinating to know that people in 1648 were experiencing the same problems, and seeking the same solutions, that people are in 2020. Actually it's a bit depressing to know that people are still seeking the same answers to the same problems.
3. 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte. I first read this at 11 years old, and now drag it out every winter, when it's cold and dark, and still love it. If anyone ever gets the chance to go to the North Yorkshire moors, do it. I went up their a few years ago, for the second time, and you really get a feel for the author and where she lived and the book itself.
