Dear Readers,
When I started teaching... I started reading. I read all the 6-8 grade literature and then more. I now LOVE reading and ALWAY have a book on my dresser. Reading lets my mind wonder into a new world without diapers and crying babies. But reading is more fun when you share. For this blog I will write about the GOOD books I read. I will write about books that are worthy of reading and ones I truly recommend. Enjoy your readings.

The book of Mormon Girl by Joanna Brooks
OK I read this book because it was a memoir of a Mormon, and I thought it might be interesting. Well, it was a memoir girl who grew up in a normal Mormon home in California, loved Young Woman's, went to BYU, then became involved in the woman's right. She joined some feminist group and started praying to Heavenly Mother. She then got involved in Gay Marriages, and became an advocate of EQUALITY or everyone should be treated equal. In the end she marries a Jewish Man. She now has 2 children. Her children go to a Jewish school but then go to the Mormon Church on Sunday. She is going to let then decide what religion they want in the end. So I just ruined the whole story for you..... but it really isn't worth reading. It is just Joanna's thoughts on how to make this world PEACEFUL and EQUAL. Really not worth your time.

Fire of the Covenant by Gerald N. Lund
Leif and I watched the movie 17 Miracles. It was about the Martin and Willie Handcart companies that came to Zion late in the Season and all the miracles that happened on the track. Well, I fell in love with the story and wanted to learn more. So I actually bought this 750 page book and started reading. It is a historic fiction book about 4 families who came to Zion with the Martin and Willie companies. I learned SO SO much about handcart companies and how they worked. It was an amazing book with lots of true fact. I am so glad that I bought this book.
