Do you cry while reading? I don't too often, but I have an entire shelf on Goodreads dedicated to books that made me cry. When I peruse it, some of the reasons I cried return easily to my mind. For example, the last book that me cry was Angela Ruth Strong's Husband Auditions. A single woman afraid the man she likes won't commit—oh yeah, that hit me square in the feelings. With other books, I can remember a character's death or another poignant scene which drew out the tears. But some leave me wondering. Why did I cry? All of these are books I remember fondly, but I guess I'll have to read them again to remember the reason they brought out the waterworks.

Yes, Cynthia is both an amazing author and person. :-) I actually read her non-fiction first before checking out her fiction.

Loved seeing A.W. Tozer on your TTT! He's another favorite non-fiction author, though of course a classic more than a contemporary. :-)
