Reading My Way Through May

June 6, 2011 by Tracey 1 Comment

May brought several good books my way, though none of them were on my reading list for the year.

Put Your Dream to the Test by John Maxwell encourages readers to discover their dream and take the steps needed to be able to live it.  My full review is here.

No More Dreaded Mondays by Dan Miller was another business-related book that I found helpful and inspiring.  You can read my review of the book posted earlier.

I won Reshaping It All by Candace Cameron Bure in a giveaway at My Side of the Story.  In this book, Candace offers motivation for physical and spiritual fitness.  She shares her heart as a wife, mother and proponent of healthy living.  While I may disagree with her in certain areas, the spiritual truths included are beneficial and I enjoyed the book’s positive message.

May was my month for winning book giveaways!  At MODSquad, I won Fashioned by Faith by Rachel Lee Carter.  Written by an international model, this book is geared specifically toward Christian teenage girls.  I find her standards of modesty to be a bit different from mine, but I appreciate her inclusion of Scripture passages on modesty and the challenge she offers to women of all ages to evaluate the way they dress and ensure that they are not a stumbling block to men.

I’ve purchased two books from my reading list – What to Eat by Marion Nestle and The Olive Plants by Warren Henderson – and I hope to get them read in June.

What have you been reading lately?
