November Books
Every month instead of writing
individual book reviews for the books I had read, I just post a list of those
books. At the beginning of the year, I
set a target of reading 60 books but due to lockdown and having more time on my
hands, I actually hit that target in April so I increased my target to 100, and
by end of July, I had read 102. Instead of increasing my target again, I decided
I would just read for the sake of reading.
So now it’s November and I have
managed to read 10 books and these are the books I have read:
Biography
A Grateful American by Gary Sinise
Children’s
What
not to do if Turn Invisible by Ross Walford
Christian
Dirty Glory by Pete Greig
Be Holy
by Warren Wiersbe
Praying
the Bible by Donald S Whitney
Fiction
When
Life Gives you Lemons by Fiona Gibson
The
Dilemna by B A Paris
The
List of my Desires by Gregoire Delacourt
Crime
The
Disappeared by Joy Ellis
In the
Name of Truth by Viveca Sten
So the best book I read this time
was A Grateful American by Gary Sinise which was a biography of Gary’s life which
included his childhood, his teenage years, and the start of his theatre company
Steppenwolf in Chicago. Gary also talks about the relationship with his
parents, his marriage, his children, and the parts he has played in theatre
productions and movies and shares of the role that made the most impact on his
life - Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump.
The role in Forrest Gump was Gary’s
break into the movies as well as the start of his journey of supporting the
military and the formation of his band, the Lieutenant Dan Band. This was very interesting and informative
book, not just about his life but about the role of the military within the United States of America.
