Book list

[theatokos]

While tidying up today I realized my stack of books is growing rapidly. A little out of hand I might say.

Here is the stack:

*Journal of the American Academy of Religion
*East/West - another religion studies journal
*Nancy Farmer The Sea Trolls - a young adult book given to me by a like-minded junior high principal; have read the first 20 pages
*Real Sex Lauren Winner - a book on chastity from a Christian point of view; I'm one third of the way through
*Goldfinger - next in the Bond series; I have read the first chapter
*Moby Dick - because I keep hearing how good it is
*What is Gnosticism? Karen King - I borrowed this from my boss, because I want to know more about Gnosticism, even though I'm not a fan of it
*Bone Jeff Smith - a 1400 page graphic novel which I started on the plane ride back from Alaska
*Two issues of Maria - a Marian studies journal; I am working my way through all of them as part of my reading for school

Also, I just finished and put away What's the Matter with Kansas, which I read on a very good friend's advice. It was only okay. Like I need or want any more information reminding me just how divided this country is.

Karen King is a great person to learn about gnosticism from--she actually has a sense of humor! (She was one of my teachers.)
