BOOKS

At the Ministers meeting yesterday we had a long chat about books and smy good friend Tom suggested that we put up a list of what we have read and are reading. The books I have listed as read are not in particular order of reading, just the order they are on the shelf. Think this just about covers the last couple of years. I think! I have a fascination with books of a strange title.
