Books

This year, I have every intention of going through the massive backlog of books that currently lives on my shelf (see picture) . So, by the end of this year, I hope to have under my belt:

“The Trial” by Franz Kafka (I don’t actually have this book, but I want to read it- if you have it, please let me know, english version preferred as I can’t speak german especially well)

“Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” by Mark Twain

“Mere Christianity” by CS Lewis

“The Case for Christ” by Lee Strobel

“Eureka! The Birth of Science” by Andrew Gregory

and some other books I don’t have (if any of you have them I will take it off your hands for a bit)

“Inside Out” by Larry Crabb

“God’s Undertaker” by John Lennox

“As-yet-untitled PhD thesis” by Andrew Stothers . Oh look, is that a pig flying out the window…

So as I read these I might review them up here. Be mildly excited.

    Got it free with the Guardian a while back. I got a free mug this week. ooooh, its a good paper.

  3. Thanks Dave, but I bit the bullet and bought it myself!
