30 DAY CHALLENGE: DAY 06

Day 06 – Your favorite book.

This one is a toughy...considering I don't read a lot of books. Bring on the shame. I deserve it. That doesn't mean I don't attempt to though! I actually JUST got a new book in the mail last night, which happens to be written by my friend K! His story started out as a blog and manifested into a book! I'm on the 4th chapter!


     "A young Marine Staff Sergeant finally tells the tale of his two year experience in dealing with deployment, conflict, death and recovery. With a unique upbringing as an Arab-American, he wrestles with his beliefs and emotions, while trying to make sense of everything around him. It is a story of triumph from sadness, victory from the jaws of defeat. Follow him through his journey and see what becomes of him."



Here's the link for anyone that is interested in purchasing the hard cover copy! DOOO IT! There's also the paperback copy here!

Also in my queue is the Hunger Games series! All. 3. Books. I ordered them over the summer, but just never got around to reading them.



However, my favorite book is one I read about 6 years ago called "The 5 People You Meet In Heaven" by Mitch Albom which kind of teaches you to appreciate not just the people in your life, but also the strangers. The book is about a guy who dies while trying to save a girl from a ride and he passes away thinking he didn't make a significant impact on anyone's life. He meets with 5 different people whom he either had an influence over or had an influence on him. 


Super short and a totally quick read! A highly recommended read!
