The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd. But beyond this, my son, be warned: the writing of many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body. The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. -King Solomon

A scarlet cord, Unlikely angel
A scarlet cord is another great novel by Deborah Raney. Melanie, a widow with a young daughter, falls in love with Joe, who was hired by her church as a Bible teacher. They eventually become engaged, but one day Joe disappears, leaving a letter behind assuring her of his love, but saying he can never return and explaining nothing. I enjoyed reading this book.
Unlikely angel : the untold story of the Atlanta hostage hero by Ashley Smith is a really interesting story. Well-written and easy to follow. Brian Nichols, who had killed three people in an Atlanta courthouse and another who wouldn't cooperate when Brian wanted his vehicle, showed up at Ashely's apartment at 2:00 in the morning with three guns. Ashley was determined not to die and decided to do whatever it took to convince him to release her.
