Reading 14 months ago

I’m reading What Makes You Not a Buddhist and I really like it so far. It definitely teaches the basics, which I needed to learn first.

Couple of other books 16 months ago

My books are finally coming in the mail! Yay!

I’d sort of been on hold with this goal, waiting for the books I ordered. The book I had was not bad, but assumed the reader had the basics of Buddhism down … which I don’t.

Brought my book 18 months ago

I finally was able to collect my book from work. I brought it up here with me for the weekend, and have already jumped back into it.

More recommendations 18 months ago

I’ve learned a little more from reading the James Frey memoir … at least I think those ideas are Buddhist ones, the ones he mentions from reading in his little “Tao” book given him by his brother. I’ve also had a friend who is Buddhist recommend a couple good “starter” books for me. I did buy a book from Amazon a while ago, but I left it at work. I think I’ll order these couple books from Amazon soon to be delivered here at Grandma’s house and get to reading on them. I want to do this within the month.

Suggested by my friends 19 months ago

More than one person suggested recently that I find out more about Buddhism. I bought a book recommended by one of them … now to find energy for “non-fun” reading.
