Well, yes, I did already get tagged for this meme. Mine's here.
I'm delighted to see that someone else likes Brother Sun, SIster Moon.. I walked away from that movie all starry-eyed and inspired when I first saw it as a teenager. And Les Miserables is my favorite novel of all. We have a lot in common.

Thank you for doing this, Barbara. It's really such a good way to get recommendations from people who you've read long enough to trust their opinion.
I also would like to lose weight, permanently. And am attracted to my husband because of his intelligence. And like Henri Nouwen. Lori listed his Adam as a favorite.
