I’ve zoned in on two top favorite genres for reading: biography/memoir, and quality fiction (especially if it’s a really great story from another culture).
Thanks for the recs! I read the first Elizabeth Elliot book, and enjoyed it, so the next one is on my TBR, as well as Covenant of Water and Beth Moore memoir.
What great picks! The Covenant of Water was truly a plodding but engrossing read. Can only imagine reading it with your daughter’s diagnosis in mind. I’m due for a re-read of Prayer In The Night.
Yeah, I had no idea leprosy was a main plot point when I picked it up. As I was reading the medical descriptions of the leprosarium in the book, I was simultaneously taking the WHO’s leprosy course to educate myself, and it all just lined up.

I liked the first one, the second one was a bit more unexpected!
