Noel's Library-Check it Out!

 

Noel’s Library – Check It Out!

 

A couple of things that are buzzing at the library, two books in particular. 

 

One is Same kind of Different as Me by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.  This book follows the relationship between two men, one a homeless drifter and the other a world traveling art dealer.  This unlikely friendship was the dream of the art dealer’s wife and the story is amazing and true.  Not only that, it takes place right in Red River Parish and Texas.  Very thought-provoking and inspiring.  We have two copies in the library, but they go fast.

 

The other book is The Shack by William P. Young.  This book has gotten a lot of press around town, even a discussion at Centenary College last week.  This work of fiction centers around a man whose daughter is abducted during a family vacation.  It is suspected that she has been murdered when evidence is found in a shack deep in the Oregon wilderness.  The father is invited back to the shack four years after the incident.  What he finds there will change his world forever.  The Shack wrestles with the timeless question? “Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?” We have two book copies and one cd.  All are checked out at this printing.

 

These are just two of the thousands of items we have in the Annie T. Munday Library.  Stop by to see us when you get a chance, it is a beautiful place to visit.
