current reading

I'm in the middle of a few books at the moment, and all the while I am still trying to finish reading the Bible (which has been extremely slow, and not very steady :( but I only have a book and a half to go!). I'm not really good at maintaining interest in one particular book, I switch and swap, and start new books ALL the time. I wonder if I will ever fiinish any of these...

The Spiritual Man - Watchman Nee
Man, The Dwelling Place of God - AW Tozer
Pursuit of God - AW Tozer
Vanity Fair - William Thackeray
Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen
Tribulation Force - Tim LaHaye & Jerry B. Jenkins
Prayer - Philip Yancey

Not likely I reckon.

Choose one book from the unfinished pile, and lock the rest in your brother's room. Promise yourself you will only get to see the shiny cover of the next book after you finish the current. You can do it, Rowas!

hahaha! That's actually a good idea.. Thanks Tre! The only thing is, I still have several bookshelves FULL of books so I am bound to start another book as well! It's such a bad habit - I'm starting to run out of bookmarks!!
