Welcome

A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Conservative, Catholic, with Asperger's, who reads a lot. These are the ramblings of the books I read or read aloud to my energetic Autistic 11yo. I love reading almost any book from classics to mysteries to fantasy to ARCs. I sometimes go through stages of "genre love", get addicted to manga and graphic novels or get caught up in reading ARCs, but you'll find I read a wide variety of books, both fiction and non-fiction. I tend to post a lot of reviews of juvenile/teen books but I still do a lot of adult reviews as well. I read well over 200 books a year, but haven't made it to 300 yet!

Who made you?

Acquired: Gifted a copy from ds's Godmother.

Reason for Reading:  We have been using this book as part of our religion studies every school day, very slowly, for about the past year.

A very simple yet thorough introduction to the Catechism and church teachings for youngsters and new Catholics of any age.  Simple question and answer format takes you through 11 topics starting with "Why Am I In the World" and ending with "Sin".  The final three pages present a collection of popular prayers.  Very useful and easy to understand.  Gave my son a good grounding in Catholic theology and we both memorized the ten commandments in order!  Highly recommended.
