I have not heard of the book, but it seems interesting.
ReplyDeleteIf I only had time to read some more, 100 books waiting for me!
I noticed the name of the one of the authors: Gundry. I knew his mom when she was a lovely older woman and I was a new bride.
ReplyDeleteI'll be interested in looking for that book.
My first book of 2013 is going to be The Mark of Athena by Riordan--simple children's book.
I love that painting. I'm not surprised you chose it!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo! I think reading is the only reasonable thing to do while wearing the garb.
ReplyDeleteI love that your mind's eye has been contemplating this image for some time!

Im still finishing a couple of books from last year but hoping my first one of this year will be a religious book too, just need to decide which one...
ReplyDeleteLOVE the way you started your list! I took New Testament from Dr. Gundry when I was a student at Westmont about a hundred years ago... I still have my texts, including Harmony of the Gospels, and a worthier book is not in existence.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful painting as well, and a lovely beginning to the new year.
You are off to a good start.
ReplyDeleteSara, it sounds like you are off to a good start if you have one book done already for this year. I love the painting and would enjoy seeing it closer to Dmire the dress detail. Happy new year to you and the musician!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading, Sara! It makes me happy just hearing about your upcoming year with books.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should stop devouring the newspaper over breakfast and I might get more books read. When I look at my shelves I wonder if I will ever get through them in a lifetime. Well certainly not if I keep buying them.
