on the first of each month, starting September 2006, i will give 1000 gold to the person who has suggested the best book for us to read.
so you know i will check out every book you name, including poetry, prayers, history, theology, whatever, and review it.
the decision of the winner is up to me; it will be based on whether the book touches me, whether it is evocative or thoughtful.
so list any good books here
[edit} i am sorry i am giving the reward now in September for the August posts but because of the way gaia has meesed up the gold economy i will no longer be able to pay a prize in following months.
my sincerest apologies.
