What I’m Reading: Chasing God, I Will Carry You, Kisses From Katie, & Say Goodbye to Survival Mode
Apparently, my desire to read comes in waves. I go from reading three or four books at a time, to not reading at all (or reading a couple of pages of one book once a week or so), then back to reading multiple books at once. I’m in an upswing right now and currently reading…
