my fave books
Hey friends!!
I love learning & learning through reading is one of my favorites. I love to curl up in front of our fireplace with a cup of tea & a good memoir. I love focused reading with a theological study & highlighting away. I’ve read nearly every one of these in the last year, and some of them throughout the last few years & even multiple reads. My reading topics range quite a bit - so hopefully you’ll find one of these that peaks your interest.
