Book 4
Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl
Type: Nonfiction, Religion and Spirituality
My rating: 4 stars (out of 5)
Why I chose it: This book was mentioned in a program I was watching and I recall that I had read it back in high school. I think it was required reading in a Theology class.
What I liked about it: A good part of the book describes Frankl's imprisonment in Auschwitz and other concentration camps. I found it very humbling to consider what this one man went through. This book can really take you to a very basic level and have you consider what is really important in your life and what it is that defines you.
Book 5
The Quickie by James Patterson
Type: Fiction, Mystery
My rating: 4 stars (out of 5)
Why I chose it: After that last read, I needed something a little less complex.
What I liked about it: This is true Patterson. Fast paced. Interesting plot with lots of twist and turns. A good page turner. For anyone who hasn't read Patterson, this would be a good one to start with although my all-time favorite by Patterson is Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas.
Book 6
Sail by James Patterson
Type: Fiction, Mystery
My rating: 4 stars (out of 5)
Why I chose it: Since the last book took about 3 days to read, I figured I'd get ahead of the curve a little by knocking out another quickly.
What I liked about it: This barely registers a 4 star. It's not as good as The Quickie but somehow I found myself flipping pages and staying awake a little longer each night to see what would happen next.
