Do you long for something more in your relationship with God? God doesn't want you to get your spiritual life “right.” He wants to be with you right where you are. Sharon Jaynes understands what it’s like to have a glory ache. Which is a longing to experience God’s presence on a daily basis.  In this book, she uses Scripture and story to help you erase the line between your spiritual life and your daily life as you enter the sanctuary of God’s presence. In the middle of our busy, messy day. This book will help you find the moments of sudden glory in which the Creator assures you of His love. This book was great!!! I personally met the author as well. 

Wobbly Man

The Art of War

Twenty-Five Hundred years ago, Sun Tzu wrote this book of military strategy based on Chinese warfare and military thought. Since that time, all levels of military have used the teaching on Sun Tzu to warfare and civilization have adapted these teachings for use in politics, business, and everyday life. I found this book to be very informative. A lot of it applies to war but I found a war of the mind and the war of working with other people can be applied with these principles as well. 

Working Successfully with Screwed-Up People

 This book was very good. It talked about different things in the workplace and how to deal with them to be more successful. 

Through the Looking Glass

 This was the sequel to Alice and Wonderland. I liked it. It was very strange. 

Butterflies

This book was about Katherine a girl who was burned in a really bad accident when she was two years old. She has had many reconstructive surgeries over the years. She is about to graduate from high school. This talks about her struggles with being burned and how she feels like a beast inside. She desires to be perfect by having one more reconstructive surgery. I really enjoyed this story. It really showed the inner struggles of a girl who doesn’t feel beautiful. How she wanted to be perfect and feel normal. The biggest thing I got out of this story was finding a way to love yourself and letting other people love you as well.
