Book Review Thursday!

So I have decided to start recommending a book on Thursdays! Why Thursday.. because today is Thursday and I just thought of it. Will I do this every Thursday? Probably not because I am not very good at remembering to post. Do I have good taste in books? Of course! Ok I kind of just threw that last question in there.. anyways.. I do have lots of favorite books, this weeks book is "Same Kind of Different as Me" it is the true story of Ron Hall, a wealthy Ft. Worth art dealer, and his friendship with Denver Moore, a homeless ex-convict. Sound weird enough yet? It is an amazing story though, and has some great quotes in it! One of my favorite by Denver Moore, is " Just tell 'em im a nobody that's trying to tell everybody 'bout a Somebody that can save anybody." It is a very inspirational book, and a really easy read.

There was another quote I really loved, but I left the book on an airplane on the way to Maui.. and I can't find the quote online, so I don't have it now. But Drew and I are going to buy it again soon.. yep its that good... so I will put it up when we do. I actually saw online that the book sales at Wal-Mart for 9 dollars.. so hey thats not bad at all!

Gotta go get ready for my hubby to get home from work-- have I mentioned how amazing married life is? IT IS! Drew and I just feel so blessed!

We have read this book and LOVE it. Have you read The Shack yet? It is different but pretty interesting. Glad you all had such a good time in Maui. What fun! Love you, Genie and Bobby
