It was a great month for me reading wise. I can tell you that I will be nowhere near the amount of books I read in August for September.


August
Kingdoms in Conflict; Charles Colson :star1:
The Moral Teaching of Paul; Victor Paul Furnish :star3:
Madame Bovary; Gustave Flaubert :star3:
Sons and Lovers; D.H. Lawrence :star4:
Faust; Goethe
The Stranger; Albert Camus :star4:
 
August was a so-so month for me.

The Memory Keeper’s Daughter - Kim Edwards
The Unbearable Lightness of Being - Milan Kundera

September already looks better

Paths of glory - Jeffrey Archer
Amsterdam - Ian McEwan
The Angel’s Game - Carlos Ruiz Zafon
 
i was just getting back into reading in August. I started to read Angels & Demons, but stopped about halfway through (conclave part). I think the main thing that drove me away from the book was Brown's frequent low-blows to the church and religion. i'm not religious but am spiritual and have no grudges against the church. this was probably just a bad book choice for me, given the plot. a frient lent it to me, so it was a free read.
 
Tribe - Bruce Parry
Girl Missing - Tess Gerritsen
How Clean is Your House? (ahem, yes, really).
The Man With the Dancing Eyes - Sophie Dahl

Bit of a slow month for me...
