As I read, I was so reminded of my protagonist, Davy, in The Glade Series and Adventures in The Glade as he, too, is ten-years-old. It is so amazing as writers to be able to place ourselves back into that framework of childhood and create a believable and unforgettable story. You have the gift!<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-76770827375097382632016-05-03T15:07:54.863-07:002016-05-03T15:07:54.863-07:00Thank you for including my book, Martha!

And like you, there are times when I spend more time reading blogs and writing than actually giving myself the luxury of curling up with a book.

I hav...Hi Martha! I love that cute little squirrel!<br />I have read Love Idol, and I did enjoy it. I remember when Michele de Rusha's book launched, but I have not read it yet.<br />I am very much a 'streaky reader'. I'll go for a while reading several books at once, and then...nothing. I've always been that way. Right now I'm reading For The Love/Jen Hatmaker, and The Radical Pursuit of Rest/John Koessler. I think I'm in a reading streak!<br />Thanks for sharing your friends with us,<br />CeilCeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293917798735764739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-74831117270319444052016-05-03T11:52:34.858-07:002016-05-03T11:52:34.858-07:00Martha, I consider myself a reader--really need to...Martha, I consider myself a reader--really need to do far more of it. Growing up, I was expected to love to read because my dad did; however, it wasn't ever modeled to me in a consistent way. It's really hard for me to pick one book that is a big favorite. The Bible, of course, is a big one. I also enjoy reading biographies. In the last few years, I've grown to really enjoy Christian fiction (such as Jeanette Oke and similar authors).<br /><br />Love and blessings!

(As if the teacher didn't know). One of my favorite fiction books is called Wisdom Hunter by Randall Arthur. It started me on my journey out of legalism.
