Because I&#8217;ve got SO many books to read, and I&#8217;ve just got to pass a few of them on.  The idea is that you, in turn, will then pass this book (or another one) along after you finish reading it.  A perpetual stream of book giving, that&#8217;s what it is!<\/p>\n<p>So, first is the Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.  Although I thought this was an excellent book, I found it very disturbing.  But I guess that&#8217;s the point.  It&#8217;s supposed to upset us.  You can read about it <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Kite_Runner\">here<\/a>.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/en\/thumb\/6\/62\/Kite_runner.jpg\/200px-Kite_runner.jpg\" height=200 width=150alt=\"\" \/>  <\/p>\n<p>The next book is 8 minutes in the morning<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/ecx.images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51W917QM64L._SL500_BO2,204,203,200_PIsitb-dp-500-arrow,TopRight,45,-64_OU01_AA240_SH20_.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nYes, it&#8217;s a fitness book.  I think this has some good ideas.  And hey, 8 minutes?  Really?  If that&#8217;s all it took I think we&#8217;d all be thin by now, but maybe it&#8217;ll work for you.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you would like to enter to win either of these books, just leave a comment about which book, and I&#8217;ll do a drawing on the 13th of June.  Thanks for playing along!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve chosen winners, and they are Kathleen Marie for Kite Runner, and Cynthia for 8 minutes iin the morning!
