Spem in alium

I've just read [i]The Story of a Soul, [/i]and found it absolutely beautiful. I didn't want to stop reading! :cloud9: Kind of made me want to do this: :nun2:

Recently I needed to read [i]Confessions [/i]and [i]The City of God[/i] by St. Augustine for an essay, and even though they were dense I got a lot out of them. :heart:

I'm about to begin a book called [i]When God Spoke English: A History of the King James Bible, [/i]and am also hoping to read [i]The Way of Perfection[/i] by St. Teresa of Avila. I've heard a lot about St. Teresa - some people I know have even said that she was "scary" because of her visions and raptures. I'm looking forward to seeing what she had to say :)

I read that twice. It's terrible.

[i]Kilmeny of the Orchard[/i], by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Fluffy, but it's so sweet and simple of a story I can't help myself. :3

And [i]Screwtape Letters[/i], again. Every time I read it I get something new out of it.

Not reading, but listening to[i] Catching Fire[/i], book two of The Hunger Games series. I liked the first book a lot, but didn't expect the games to be over by the end of it. It'll be interesting to hear what happens next...

I agree about "The Screwtape Letters" so much in there.

I recently read on the internet a book which discrives the life of Louis Marie Maulbont d'Arbaumont, in religion Father John of the Sacred Heart, spiritual director of the Victims of the Sacred Heart. He helped the Foundress build up this religious congregation. A very good book indeed.
