Nightstand Books

 
What are you reading to help you fall asleep at night?  I cleaned my nightstand off this morning, so I can actually make a short list for you:

The Exact Place - A memoir of a Minnesotan childhood by Margie Haack

An Agatha Christie, which I hope to get to

The Mouse with the Question Mark Tail,  a new Richard Peck children's book (I never miss
             a new one by him)

The Greatest Gift  A Christmas devotional by Ann Voskamp of One Thousand Gifts fame

This Shadow, a suspenseful tale by our own Jerusha Agen - looking forward to getting to 
             bed tonight to see what's coming next . . .
 
Sweet Mercy by Ann Tatlock, picked it up from the library a month ago and have yet to start.
 
 
Okay, twist my arm and I'll tell you what I removed from my nightstand this morning. 
 
A Year of Biblical Womanhood, by Rachel Held Evans, my daughter-in-law's sister, an
             intriguing, funny, challenging, thought-provoking read
 
A Little Salty to Cut the Sweet, tales from a southern childhood
 
Last, and best, Jesus on Every Page, by David Murray, where the author shows how we 
             see Jesus alive and well all through the Old Testament.  Buy it.  Then read it.
 
Now, what's on your nightstand?
