Thank you, Kristin, from This is the Life for nominating me for The Thinking Blogger Award. I really appreciate it!

My five nominations are here.

Thank you!

Thank you, Kristin, from This is the Life for nominating me for The Thinking Blogger Award. I really appreciate it!

According to the rules I must now nominate 5 other blogs who make me think. Many of the them are part of the NYT Notable Book Challenge, and some of them are also part of my Book Awards reading group. I really enjoy reading their posts. Here they are in no particular order:

1. Amy from The Sleepy Reader

2. Dana from Think Pink

3. Book Haven

4. Mercy’s Maid

5. Lisa from Books.Lists.Life

Tag, you’re it! Here are the rules:

1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.

2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.

3. Optional: Proudly display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award’ with a link to the post that you wrote.

Truly Biblical (Booking through Thursday)

Booking Through Thursday

  1. Just out of curiosity, as we enter into Passover and Easter season… have you ever read the Bible? Just the odd chapter or Psalm? The whole thing? (Or, almost the whole thing? It’s some heavy reading, of course, and those “begats” get kind of tedious.) Answer: I have read the New Testament numerous times and all but parts of Isaiah and Jeremiah in the Old Testament.

  2. If so, was it from religious motivation or from a literary perspective? Stuck with nothing else to read in a hotel room the Gideon’s have visited? Any combination? Answer: I read the Bible for personal inspiration and to hear from God.

  3. If not, why not? Against your religious principles? Too boring? Just not interested? Something you’re planning on taking care of when you get marooned on a desert island? N/A

  4. And while we’re on the subject… what about the other great religious works out there? Are they more to your liking? Answer: I do plan on reading the Koran someday.
