I joined a book club here, and it's great. Well organized, lots of snacks, and tons of discussion. We've read a big variety of books, which has helped me get into some genres that I'd normally never even consider.
This month's book was The 5,000 Year Leap. It's not exactly light reading, but it is so fantastic. I'm not quite finished yet, but I've learned so much. It's written by a man who has studied the founding fathers and the basic principles of the constitution for years. He gathered his thoughts into basic principles that the founding fathers wanted our country to be founded upon.
It's a very timely read, with the general political climate and the upcoming election. I'm amazing at the foresight the founders of our country had. And after reading this, it's clear to me that they were guided by Heavenly Father. There's no way they couldn't have been.
Don't let the endorsement by Glenn Beck scare you off...this is a level-headed and factual read. I'd recommend buying a paper or digital copy...you'll want to make notes!
