I usually have more than one book at a time going, but I think reading six at a time is overboard:
- I'm reading Dreams from My Father, Barack Obama's memoir, because I want to know more about our new President.
- I'm reading Arminian Theology by Baylor prof Roger Olson because I sometimes need to be a guest in another's perspective. (I'm a Calvinist as taught by Baptist theologian Millard Erickson.)
- I'm reading The Prodigal God, Tim Keller's latest book. Excellent!
- Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell has been sitting on my shelf for a couple of years. I had every intention of finding out what the hubbub was about Bell, but only now getting to reading him.
- I'm reading The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund Morris, in hopes of getting to the second volume, Theodore Rex, before the third and final volume of the biography is released.
- And I'm almost done with The Perfect Storm by Sebastian Junger, having bought it 3 summers ago for $4 at a Brenham book store.
I'm thinking about joining Readers Anonymous: "Hi I'm Tom and I'm a bookaholic." Time to pare back down to no more than three at a time!
