Ecclesiastes
My annual re-reading of this book that doesn’t really fit in a bible for believers. “How sweet is the light, what a delight for the eyes to behold the sun! Even if a man lives many years, let him enjoy himself in all of them, remembering how many the days of darkness are going to be. The only future is nothingness!” (11:7-8) That about sums it up.

Well-written novel about a very believable near future U. S. ravaged by constant storms. Excellent prose, compelling narrative, and some good characters. Couldn’t put it down.
