Books I have read in 2008

Here is a list of what I have read in this past year. I like to vary my reading and admittedly some folks may not consider listening to audio books as pure reading. But I find it redeems my drive time where otherwise I might listen to what is often inane talk radio or even the dice game that is “Christian Radio”. So here is my list for last year.. a mix of Christian, secular, classics:
