About

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.

Benjamin Franklin

It’s my goal in life to eventually do both, but for now, I’m going to start with the first. I’m Justin Jones from Indiana, a natural Indiana Jones—at least in name! As you can see in the picture, I have a wonderful family, and we love having fun together. When I’m not spending time with them, you’ll probably find me reading. Books have always been a big part of my life, and this blog is my way of sharing that passion.

Mr. Indiana Jones

Those of us who have been true readers all our life seldom fully realise the enormous extension of our being which we owe to authors. We realise it best when we talk with an unliterary friend. He may be full of goodness and good sense but he inhabits a tiny world. In it, we should be suffocated. The man who is contented to be only himself, and therefore less a self, is in prison. My own eyes are not enough for me, I will see through those of others. Reality, even seen through the eyes of many, is not enough. I will see what others have invented.

C. S. Lewis

If we go through life only seeing things from our own perspective, we miss out on the creativity and richness of God’s creation. I can’t even begin to count the ways books have shaped how I see the world and my place in it. My goal with this blog is to share those experiences with you and help you discover your own.
