Well, I seem to have temporarily lost interest in reading fiction. I have been very drawn to non-fiction books lately, particularly popular culture/theology/discipleship. I recently finished How Evil Works by David Kupelian, a look at how American society has gone downhill and how evil plays out in our culture. It was somewhat of a continuation of his book The Marketing of Evil that I read recently also.
So I've given in to my desire for non-fiction and have set aside any fiction books that I was reading and am concentrating on reading non-fiction for now. I'm sure my desire for fiction will return but am using this opportunity to try to get through some of my To-Be-Read non-fiction books.
In other news, I have officially broken my record for most books read in a year, previously 101 from the year 2005. I have now finished 102 books for this year and that was by the end of October.

I too seem to have lost interest at least in Christian fiction, but enjoying my Christian non-fiction reads.
I've not counted yet how many books I've read this year, but I'm sure I'm no where near my record of last year, I think was around 140.
Non-fiction takes a little longer to read.
I see in your current reading If God Is Good by Randy Alcorn. I read this book when it came out, loved it. What do you think of it so far?
actually, I haven't gotten very far into it. it hasn't really grabbed my interest yet. our small group is doing it so I plan to keep reading it, but haven't really gotten a lot out of it yet.
