This is the first book I have read this year. It is a good read and well written. I enjoyed it and loved the end of the story. 
One of my goals year is to read novels, I did not set a limit so I have accomplished that goal. I am already on my second book, but need to get in some work related reading too. I have found out when I read for entertainment, it makes the reading of my texts for work go that much faster and easier.
I read this interesting stat on my Facebook roll this morning from someone at our local radio station… I was just reading that 1 in 4 adults didn’t read any books last year… I first heard this from John Piper, he said that in reading just 15 minutes a day, you could easily knock off a 200 page book a month… just think of where you could go in a year having read 12 books! – Scott
Looks like the book has been made into a movie, can’t wait to see it.
So, is reading books one of your goals for this year? How many books do you normally read in a year? Do you think movies are ever as good as the book?

Thank you for your sweet comment! I am so glad you stopped over!!! I love to read and it is my favorite past time and I never think a movie is as good as the book…except for To Kill A Mockingbird. I think they did a wonderful job.
