If you liked John Adams, you should read 1776.
I can't get through it. Maybe I should... Thanks for the suggestion!
amber!!! i miss you chica! i read your posts about your classes. you are the BEST teacher... you relate to the kids and love them. you are really touching lives as a teacher, i am sure of it.
about books! i know you've read the infinite atonement, but i just finished "the continous atonement" by brad wilcox. i truly recommend it. it has stories/analogies in it that i will remember and that's so helpful. i really enjoyed it. in the book club i'm in... i missed the last book but everyone loved it so i'm planning on reading it. it's called "these is my words". 2 more. sorry longest comment ever. did you have little women on that list? one of my favs ever. and i read a biography on audrey hepburn last summer that i liked.. i can't remember the name right now, written by her son...but she's a very elegant and good person, it was worth the time. k! hope that is helpful. i'd love to catch up sometime. next time we're in utah? LOVE YA!!!
