Of Mice and Cheese

Who Moved My Cheese? An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life by Spencer Johnson
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Deb insisted that I read this short book. So I did.

The book is a very easy read. I read it in an hour. It basically is a story of two mice and two littlepeople (people the size of mice). The story is used to illustrate how each of us adapt to change (or don't adapt).

The Future of the Middle East?

Epicenter: Why the Current Rumblings in the Middle East Will Change Your Future by Joel C. Rosenberg
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I love Joel C. Rosenberg's fiction books. So, I decided to read this nonfiction book about his opinion on the Middle East. I was pleasantly surprised that in this book he also explains why he used some of the story lines for his books. The book centers on the prophecy of Ezekiel found in chapters 38 and 39. He uses reasoning and sources to arrive at the conclusion that Iran and Russia will form a military alliance against Israel and Israel will stand alone. Although I cannot argue against his logic and especially against his advice to prepare for such events, I still find it hard to fully accept his premise. As I read, I kept wondering if President Thomas S. Monson or any of the other prophets, seers, and revelators that I sustain would agree with him.
