books

What’s on your summer reading list?  Hopefully you’ve got something good to chew on.  Physical books are hard to find here (not may bookstores making a go of it in The Buj).  Amazon doesn’t deliver to Burundi; Nile does, but the selection is limited (reaction).  Anywho…to get something new you have to comb the shelves of others, get a generous visitor to bring it for you, or re-read what you have from a different perspective.  Unless you’re one who likes to read on a device, in that case you’ve got plenty of options (occasionally I read a book on my phone, but it’s not like I need more screen time).

My current reading list includes:

Why Nations Fail – a very, very detailed look at how nations prosper or falter.  It’s meaty but I enjoyed the research, the attention to history, and the theory from the authors.

The Road Back to You – a descriptive look at the enneagram personalities.  Current Jost Book Club selection so I’m not allowed to give my opinion just yet.

Falling Upward – perspectives on spiritual maturity and how we journey with our faith.  Wow-zers, this book really spoke to me!!  I connected with so much of what the author expressed.

I would be entertained by what you are into (the Bible counts but it has to be a specific book).
