Book worth reading

Ok - so I have been meaning to put a post up of books I've read lately - some good, some great, some really not worth it. But I just finished a book that is really worth it - "Three Cups of Tea - One Man's Mission to Promote Peace...One School at a Time" by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin. If you have a book club - this would be a great book - but even if you don't - you should definitely take the time to read it. It is about an American mountain climber who gets lost on the way down K2 in Pakistan, and wanders into a very remote village - who takes him in, helps him recover, and then to thank them, he promises to build them a school. The journey this starts for him and all he comes in contact with is amazing. You can check out the website at www.threecupsoftea.com - for even more info.

Ironically enough this is the book club for our ward for April and the author is coming and speaking in our area! Looking forward to reading it!
