This was a different read for me, but so compelling. It talks about the state of our American nation, and it starts very negative and scary but it ends on such an encouraging, positive note.

Revelation Revealed | Jack Van Impe

Finished this book today. I‘ve read Revelations before on my own but this verse by verse study made it make more sense. Revelations isn‘t written in order of events but in layers, building on top of other events. If reading this book of the bible has confused or intimidated you, I totally recommend getting this to help clarify things. Very interesting and eye-opening.

BookBabe Great review! 🙌🏻 2y

Any #readathons going on? We have holed up awaiting the arrival of Storm Eunice in the early morning hours, so I figure I'll just read from now until it blows over (apparently on Monday). What do you say, fellow Brits, Irish, and continental Europeans in the path of the storm(s): #StormReadathon ftw? Keep safe, keep indoors, keep reading.

TrishB Enjoy the down time! I‘m expected in the office tomorrow and teaching is still on! 2y
Leniverse @TrishB The difference between amber and red alert, I guess! We're on the very edge of the red area, so hopefully it won't be too bad and we'll just cwtch up with books and blankets all day whilst the wind does its howling thing. 2y
rockpools Unless it takes out the wifi, I‘m working tomorrow ☹️. We‘ve had not-remotely-stressful emails from Western Power & the council though, so I‘m currently charging everything that‘ll charge! 2y

LeeRHarry Hope it wasn‘t as bad as predicted - I have relatives in South Wales and they seemed to have been ok so 🤞 for you too. 2y
Leniverse @LeeRHarry The wind tore down a big part of our fence, but it really needed replacing anyway. Other than that we've been fine here. Glad your relatives are ok too! 2y

Meh, At first was Interesting but the second half of the book was boring. Way to bogged down In the metaphors and symbols of Revelation. Which if you like that then you will enjoy the book. I was interested in how the Mass mimics Revelations and that part of the book was interesting.
I feel like he could just of ended it there. Anyway I‘m not a catholic so don‘t take my review as gospel , pun intended.

4✨ This is a faith based book. The main message in this book is you need to find a quiet place to really listen. Each chapter is filled with advise and encouragement. Definitely a good read if you are struggling. Just finding time to listen can help with many struggles a person may be going through.

I have been tasked with writing a piece on books we‘re looking forward to being released in 2021 for a work project.

These are some i was hotly anticipating this year but I‘m struggling a bit for next years releases. What is on your must buy/borrow list that I should have a look at?

“By not mentioning when characters are white, reviews perpetuate the White Default, thereby supporting the systemic injustice of white dominance.”

rockpools That‘s quite challenging! I‘ve been browsing through Kirkus‘s children‘s reviews to see how it works. 4y
Lindy @RachelO I agree that it‘s challenging. Seeing how it‘s done in Kirkus is a good idea. 👍 4y
LibrarianRyan I love this idea. I will have to try to be more active about using it. 4y

KVanRead Wow. Thanks for sharing this. Can‘t believe I‘d never thought about the White default and its impact - clearly my own white privilege there. I will from now on. (edited) 4y
Lindy @LibrarianRyan Excellent! 😊 4y
LibrarianRyan The other thing i have been noticing and am going to try to be more aware of especially in picture books is when a character is POC but the author/Illustrator is not. 4y
Lindy @KVanRead I will try to indicate ethnicity in my reviews from now on too. 👍 4y
Lindy @LibrarianRyan Yes, good idea. That‘s important too. 4y
