Let Justice Roll Down

Let Justice Roll Down by John Perkins is still relevant forty years after it was written - which doesn't say a lot for us as a country.  The same rights he was fighting for in the late Sixties and early Seventies (and after, I'm sure, I'm just talking about this book) still haven't been achieved.  EVERYBODY should read this book and see if they can't manage to finally treat each other as human beings.

First Book Finished - and in February, No Less!

I can't believe it took me this long to finish a book this year!  I'm reading 7 or so - as usual, that's why it's so difficult to actually finish one, because I'm reading so many.



So for my first book finished this year, this is it.  The Unusual Suspect, by Stephen Baldwin  He's honest and straightforward, lays it on the line.  Interesting in the beginning and drew me in, I got a little bogged down in the middle (I seem to do that a lot, though) and finished on a high note.  I would recommend it, though.
