Read the Bible in the month of January. Read the Holman Study Bible this time. I thought it brought new insight but believe I still prefer the King James for its flow and prose.
Reading through it at that pace did not lend much time for study and reflection, but it was educational.
It was enjoyable to revisit stories and passages I had forgotten.
About to finish Enhanced Interrogation by Dr James Mitchell.
It was a quick read and not written with any poetic flair or big $5 words. Dr Mitchell was one of the main behavioral psychologists that developed and applied the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques to a little more than a dozen of the high value detainees captured after 9/11.
It's a little him CYOA at times but it does give insight on these men (radical Islamic terrorists), their thought processes and such. He attempts to address and refute some erronious information he claims is out there regarding the interrogation methods and what really happened at the CIA black sites he worked at.
