What I’m Crunching — August 9, 2026
After finishing Mafia, I picked this one back up. It’s hefty, but despite many more words per page, and much more granular detail than Mafia, this one reads much easier. I’m amazed at how a writer’s skill can make such a difference in drawing the reader in versus repelling them.
Wilson is another book in my quest to read at least one biography on every U.S. President.

I finished this one this week. Worth reading, though some areas require skimming. Too dry and too deep-divish to justify lots of time.

I’m rereading this one this week. The first time was just to take it all in and truly feel it. It was powerful. This time, I’m taking notes and praying through it asking the Lord to show me what He wants me to see.

This book was on the “new” shelf at the library when we took the kids on Saturday. I grabbed it for a quick read through.
It was enjoyable. The most valuable part was the conclusion where Moore lists seven things to avoid and 25 things to ensure that you do to stack the odds of getting rich in your favor.
This was interesting because of the deep dive into American history. What was it like financially for normal, everyday Americans in previous generations? Lots of interesting tidbits here.

Like the book from last week, I received this book from a prior-generation leader of the ministry I serve with.
I’m about halfway through it and I’m enjoying it.
It’s of the “fable” style where leadership lessons are woven into a story.
