Summer Reading Competition


Byzantine

Recommended Posts

I'm being mocked.  Hurt my feels.  :cry4:

I'm sorry :( Henceforth your score shall have no more questionability than Nihil's.

 

:console:

 

I've read 7 issues of Axe Cop and 6 of Dr. McNinja. Do those count?

Sorry, but on further review your score will have to be displayed as Nihil's until you provide titles.

 

Finished Job.

Byz... that's crazy!

 

I just finished Madeleine L'Engle's Meet the Austins - as a period piece it is 100% accurate -- reminds me of my own 1960's childhood... (yup, AnneLine is ANCIENT!), but it is getting a little dated...

 

I've read Many Waters in the past -- it is not one of my favorite L'Engle books -- some of her others are MUCH better. (A Wind in the Door is a favorite...)

 

But it's OK as a fantasy..... just can't treat it as a scripture commentary!

 

Currently reading another of her books, The Arm of the Starfish -- jury still out....

 

 

AND I just read Book of Joshua from the Bible.... so 2 more for me... :)

I keep a separate list on my computer, but didn't update it. Thanks for catching that!

That's very impressive. I was considering posting something like "And now I'm in the lead, until Cartermia logs on again."

FINALLY finished Original Unity of Man and Woman: Catechesis on the Book of Genesis by Bl. Pope John Paul II!

 

GET ME A TWO! AW YEAH.

Also I'm pretty far into FOTR at this point, so hopefully it'll be three before too long :evil:

Also, I'm reading the Philokalia right now. It's an anthology of Eastern Christian spiritual writings. The English is in 4 volumes. The works contained within vary greatly in length. How should I count this?
