A new book...

I've started a new book. I'm reading "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle. It is one of Oprah's books. In fact, from what I understand, she is conducting a whole web-class about this book. I'm not interested in taking a web-class, but I am interested in finding out what all of the hype is about. I found out about this book because some woman (a bit of a crazy woman, IMO) posted on TC about how Oprah is trying to start her own religion and this book is the basis of it and all Christians need to get together and stop the work that the devil is doing through her. That all seemed a bit over the top to me. I think Oprah is an interesting person. Of course, I don't agree with all of her views and I do find the influence that she has on people to be a bit scary, but really, her own religion?!?! Spencer said maybe I will convert from Catholic to "Oprahlic". LOL!!
Seriously though, it looks like more of a how to live a happy and peaceful life type book. Who couldn't use that? I guess we'll see....


Has anyone else read this book? Or, want to?? We could have a book club. :)

I started the book a couple of weeks ago but havn't gotten farther than than opening. So far a little dry and I was tired so I didn't get much out of it. Maybe I'll try again and we can compare notes. Or at the very least convert to Oprahism together!! lol

Sounds interesting... if I even have time to sit down and read a book. I haven't really read any books lately... just playing a lot of Sudoku (my favorite!). I am still working on the last book that I got from Winni... it's a "Cat" book... everything you need to know about a cat... as it helps me (and Winni) understand our little "Alley" cat! :)
