The Bobbsey Twins and Their School Mates
by Laura Lee Hope, fiction
Page count: 244
rating: 3
The Bobbsey Twins books are for a younger audience. But, I read them when I am bored.

Little Women: Four Funny Sisters
by Louisa May Alcott, fiction
Page count: 213
rating: 4
True to it’s name, the four sisters are very funny. There is a sequel to this book, too. I think it’s name is The Four Sisters Grow Up or something to that effect. There is also Little Men, and Jo’s Boys. They are all pretty funny, and they all are based on the Four Funny Sisters.

Pilgrims Progress: Simplified version
by John Bunyan, allegory
Page count: 240
rating: 5
We have about four different versions of this book, and I have read them all. I like them, and they are a good allegory.

4-5
A Woman Named Damaris
by Janette Oke, historical fiction
Page count: 219
rating: 4
Janette Oke’s books are too romance-y in my opinion, but I like historical fiction, as which they are.

6
Nancy Drew: The Clue in the Crumbling Wall
by Carolyn Keene, mystery
page count: 181
rating: 4
I would recommend the Nancy Drew books for something interesting to read. They aren’t in my list of favoritest books, but they are interesting. I haven’t ever read any of the newer ones, but I don’t like their looks. The older ones are hardbound. I think the newer ones are paperback.

Page count:181
rating: 4
I would recommend the Nancy Drew books for something interesting to read. They aren’t in my list of favoritest books, but they are interesting. I haven’t ever read any of the newer ones, but I don’t like their looks. The older ones are hardbound. I think the newer ones are paperback.

Martin Luther
by Mike Fearon, biography
page count: 158
rating: 4
This was rather interesting about Martin Luther… It is interesting to read about this era (actually, in truth, any era!)
.
11
The Fantastic Journey
by Isaac Asimov, Science Fiction
page count: roughly about 250
rating: 2
This is a rather interesting book… but dumb. There is bad words (Dad marks ‘em all out) and I haven’t ever cared for Sci-Fic, so, I wouldn’t recommend this book.
.
11-12
Tortured for Christ
by Richard Wurmbrand, non-fiction
page count: 139
rating: 5
This book is about the Christians in communist countries. It makes you realize what was/is really going on over there.
.
13-15
Genesis
by Moses, history/non-fiction/biographies
page count: 64 (in my bible)
rating: 5
Genesis is really interesting (yes, even the genealogy parts)! I think it is interesting, generation to generation. Like Isaac did the exact same thing as Abraham. And how God was with his people.
.
20-27
Exodus
by Moses history/non-fiction/biographies
page count: -edit later-
rating: 5
Exodus was pretty interesting! Although, I was wondering how they made pomegranates out of linen!
Would recommend.
