New favorite author

Since the beginning of the year, I have fallen in love with a new book author - Karen Kingsbury. She writes Christian novels and has such a way of writing that is so inspiring. I'm not into long novels so I started out with her Christmas series called the "Red Gloves" books and those are short and easy to finish. Reading her books usually encourages me to go do something about my own faith and to actually practically live it out. At the very least, it gives me something positive to think about.

This summer, I tried one of her other longer novels and am just in love with it. The title is "Like Dandelion Dust" and I can't seem to get enough of it. I read before bed (that's the only time I have) and as a result have been kept awake longer than my usual bedtime. It's kind of a nice habit to have reading before bed instead of my usual spacing out in front of the TV, which usually ends up being the Food Network channel because there seems to be nothing else satisfying to watch. I just love the library because I can get most of the Kingsbury novels there.
