Finishing the making of a book
Cynthia Jarvis writes about how a book is made by both author and reader.
Summer living: if you’re among the fortunate ones, the dog-est of dog days are also the easiest, especially if you have a good breeze, a glass of your favorite iced beverage, and a great book. The Presbyterian Outlook can’t help you with the breeze or the bev. But for books — we’ve got you! We hope that, even if you don’t have a lot of down time this summer, you can still find a few moments for reading something that challenges your thinking, deepens your faith, or simply makes you happy to be along for the ride to wherever the pages take you. Visit page 10 for Presbyterian Outlook’s reading suggestions from our book editor, Amy Pagliarella, the Presbyterian Outlook’s staff members, and from several of our regular book reviewers.
