We just got our first issue of Gilbert magazine! And the second book of Father Brown mysteries. I want to get my hands on a copy of Orthodoxy. Although my gma's library has it on audiobook, so I might just do that. (they have it on audiobook but they don't have the book, lol!!!)

That's cool! I've never heard of Gilbert magazine. What's it about?
I've only read a bunch of Father Brown mysteries. I need to read more Chesterton lol

Gilbert magazine is a magazine published by the American Chesterton Society, they have some articles by Chesterton, some about Chesterton, and some that are just really good Catholic articles.

Father Brown is amazing! I've only read a few other Chestrton books: The Man Who was Thursday, St. Francis, St. Thomas, The Club of Queer Trades (not that word used to mean something different than is does now... :P ), several random articles, and several fairy tales. We have two more books by him I have not read: Everlasting Man and Napoleon of Nottingham Hill. I want to get my hands on a copy of Orthodoxy, is is supposed to be good.

I nerver heard of the magazine, but it sounds good!

I just read " The Tripods Attack", it's a teen book about GK Chesterton. It's fiction, but really, really good.
