I‘m at work today so I am only able to focus on that so I‘ll borrow my favorite title “Nichole & the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”. I love my job but the public can wear me down if I‘m not prepared.
Tagged book is an example of the woman of God I‘d like to respond like in ALL situations … Corrie Ten Boom
@Ash.on.the.line Want to play? @Eggs I was going to pass but I‘ll expose myself with honesty.

#ReadAway2024 #NonFiction2024 MAUS is the fiction prompt and this is my nonfiction selection. #TBRTarot Choose a book whose author‘s name begins with C. This is a heartbreaking yet joyful book about the experiences of one of the leaders of the Dutch Underground during WWII.

Suet624 This was quite a read. 8mo
Singout My folks had this on the shelf with an elastic band around it (probably an accident) which was of course a compelling reason to read it at age 10! I was completely fascinated by it, and visited her home (staffed by people who had know her, as she didn't die till 1983) in my university years. 7mo
CatLass007 @Singout I don‘t think I ever heard of her until I was in college. Such a beautiful soul. 7mo

This is the memoir of Corrie Ten Boom, a Dutch Christian woman who hid Jews during World War II with the help of her family. The Nazis ultimately discovered what they were doing and sent them and their father to concentration camps. She was an amazing woman who survived and went on to devote her life to philanthropic work and Holocaust education after the war. She also forgave those who betrayed, imprisoned, and tormented her. Powerful story!

PART 1: 2020 was a tumultuous year in a lot of ways, but it included some great books. I always exclude rereads from my favorites list, though there were many excellent comfort reads I returned to this year.

Here are my top ten favorites, in no particular order:

- The Hiding Place
- Heroes & Mythos
- Anxious People
- Clap When You Land
- The Searcher
.... continued.

Our Pandemic Pages virtual book club read this recently and we all felt a little floored that we hadn‘t read it until now. Such a powerful story of strength and faith during even the hardest of trials. The bravery of Corrie and her family is astounding but the wisdom shared about trusting in God despite what we face is what will stick with me.

Catching up after getting back from vacation this week. So many great books last month!

AvidReader25 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I completely fell in love with that book! It‘s all about broken people, relationships, grief, and more. But it manages to still be filled with humor and hope. His characters are never one dimensional and I love watching him peel back their layers. 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @AvidReader25 definitely adding to my next botm!!! Thank you!!! 4y
AvidReader25 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I hope you like it! 4y

I can‘t overstate the power of this book. It‘s the true story of a woman who hid Jews in her Holland home during WWII. Despite the danger that meant for her family, she defied the Nazi rulers & stood for what was right. Her unbelievable bravery in the midst of persecution was so humbling. I couldn‘t put it down. I loved how honest she was about her moments of doubt and frustration. I was blown away by the risks she was willing to take for others.
