Janet’s Book Nook

I just ordered three new books that I am going to be reviewing and discussing for the book club. The first two are the Anne Rice books on the life of Jesus. The first is Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt: A Novel and the second is Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana. I am very excited about reading these books and seeing how the queen of horror and vampires can turn off that side of her and write on the life of Jesus. I have always been a huge fan of Anne Rice and her books. I love her Louisiana references and I also love the way she paints a picture with her words. I can’t wait to see how this translates into a story on the life of Christ.

The next book that I ordered is John Grisham’s The Appeal. This is John Grisham’s newest courtroom drama. I am a huge fan of his but I haven’t read anything since he first attempt at non-fiction  The Innocent Man. I have always loved his courtroom dramas and the excitement and drama that he includes in them.
