KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

I just put this on my Kindle and I'm looking forward to joining in on this study. 
This past week, someone gave me two book studies (Mark and Romans) by Max Lucado, so I'll be working on these also.  Has anyone gone through these individual study guides? 
I'll be back later with my January 1st comments.

Welcome, akagriff! I have read a few of Max Lucado's books but not those two. Let me know what you think of them. Romans is one of my favorite books. Also John is another fave. Suzi

I'd like to participate.  There is so much good information here.  I downloaded the Grace for the Moment along with 2 of my favorite Bible translations.  Another bonus - I might actually make it through the whole Bible this year!

Welcome, Cheri!!! I think you will really enjoy the one-year bible. It only takes about 15 minutes to read the daily reading. And what a feeling of accomplishment at the end of the year when you can say to yourself that you have read the entire Bible!!

Thanks Suzanne.  I've tried before, but never been able to stick with it.  I debated about doing the chronological bible, which sounds so interesting. 
Can't wait to get to know everyone and have some good discussions.

I downloaded a sample of Grace for the Moment.  Would someone tell me if he goes through the Bible chronologically?  I'm asking because it begins with Genesis.  Thanks.

I am enjoying the Grace OYB, it appears perhaps the wording is a bit different, or I am getting old brains and not remembering how things were worded last year  Roll Eyes  I am also reading the Journal, it's only about a page, and guess I'll have to give in and buy the chronological Bible, even tho it is not "dated", I'm trying to keep the sample up with Grace.

No, it doesn't go through it chronologically. It does a section from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms & Proverbs every day. On January 1st you start with Genesis 1:1; Matthew 1:1, Psalms 1:1; and Proverbs 1:1. At the end of the year you will have read the entire Bible.

Anju, don't feel pressured to keep up with all the versions. I have whittled mine down to one choice. I don't want to be overwhelmed by too many versions.

But if you are of a mind to read that Chronological Study Bible, there is a reading plan which you can read it in one or two years. Here is the link:

I have used the DTB version of this Bible and loved it! I got lost along the way  Huh and have been reading the OYB since Jan. 1 again. I just purchased Grace for the Moment and will catch up with you guys this weekend. Looking forward to reading with my OYB friends in 2010.  Smiley

I'll bet you don't look at the temple the same way again.

Thanks Marianner, looks really good, and if I get back NOB one of these days may see if I can find it.  But it's tooo expensive to buy DTB here and difficult to get them as well.  But again, if I find a mule, might just do it.

I sometimes scan the Kindle Boards, but this is the first time I've actually posted.

I saw the Grace for the Moment Bible mentioned several weeks ago and decided to try it.  I've started and stopped more yearly reading programs than i can count and wanted to try again.  I suspect having it on my Kindle helps because I'm keeping up to date - so far!  I love Max's short devotional thoughts and although I'm used to the NIV translation, this one makes for easier reading.  Next year I'd like to try a chronological plan.

Nice to have you here Pianolady, you will find that if you have any comments or questions regarding your Bible reading they are more than welcome here.  Every now and then I find something I had not noticed before and will comment on it and so many others find the same things.

I know it is June, but found this on the kindle boards tonight and have always wanted to read through the Bible but have never been successful. I downloaded this version after reading a sample and really liked it. Pray I will stay consistent and begin in the morning even though it will be June 16th.

Welcome, Deborah! You will be surprised how easy it is to do your daily reading. For some weird reason, it doesn't seem to take as long for me when I read it on my Kindle as opposed to the paper book!  Cheesy Feel free to comment on anything that catches your eye that you would like to discuss.  Suzi

made it through the first days reading last night after I purchased this. Really like the devotional at the beginning. I need to try and change this up and read it first thing in the morning, sometimes hard with getting ready for work. But may try the reading in the am this weekend while I am off work to see how it goes. Thanks for the welcome!
