What I’m Reading and Tweeting this Week… 2013-11-14T12:08:55-05:00 Amy Julia Becker

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Today I’m excited to be attending the Q Women Conference in NYC, with speakers such as Kate Harris, Katelyn Beaty, Rachel Held Evans, Lauren Winner, Kathy Keller, and Rebekah Lyons (plus a cameo by my husband but that’s another story). Next week, I’ll share an interview with the editors of Talking Taboo, and the week after that I’m excited to share with you an interview about forced abortion in China with Bob Fu, author of God’s Double Agent. Meanwhile, Alice Munro is keeping me satisfied with her newest collection of stories, Dear Life. We’re about to pick up Kate Chopin’s The Awakening for Book Club. And Penny and William have discovered Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. So all is well in this reading household. What’s on your list this week?

As for articles to read this week, a smattering (and more to come on the abortion article in NY Magazine next week):
