What Next?

I love to read; I’m just not sure what I should read next. I just got back from the library set down my new book next to my three recently purchased books and looked at the bookshelf behind me full of books yet to be read (there are 28). I have two books on the go at home five at the office. Then will come the borrowed ones...then what? There are too many good books to read.

What's Lilith? Lilith as in the lilith myth? could be intersting if it is. I can't read any of the other titles.

did you get my ravelry links?

Steph, I am not sure what connect it has to the myth but it is classic MacDonald fantasy. This is from the back of the book, “…George MacDonald’s famous fairy tale…it is the story of Mr. Vane, an orphan and heir to a large house in which he has a vision that leads him through an old mirror into another world –and face to face with the ultimate mystery of evil.”

I liked the ravelry links. Not sure which one to use…there are just too many choices. So I am working on a pair of mittens.

Also wanted to note that I did not buy all the books on the “to read shelf”. Twelve were given to me and two were children’s ministry text books I wanted to reread now that I am in the thick of it.
