Books in a Pile

Published by jean under Books, Writing

I got a gift certificate for Amazon this week and promptly ordered more than it covered. The US Postal Service has been going gangbusters, because the box arrived today - just two days after the order!

I am trying NOT to read Danny Gospel, which I heard from Jeff Miller (aka the Curt Jester) is excellent. It doesn’t help that the author e-mailed me, which makes me feel like I should read it. And then I read the first page and want to know more. (I admit it: I was hooked with the narrator’s father was described as ”a Johnny Cash look-alike”.)

I also would like to finish Cahill’s Mysteries of the Middle Ages. I especially hope to revisit the subject of Marian cults, for which I received the worst research paper grade in my college years.  Thank you, O Atheist Teaching Assistant Who Hates Uncynical Views of Marian Devotions!
