A good book has no ending…
Reading is my inhale. Choosing a favorite book is like picking a favorite son. It isn’t possible. Therefore this post will be turned into a page on this site, and I will continue to add good books as I stumble across them. The list will be ever growing and a little mixed.
Stop what you’re doing and go read The Mark of the Lion series. You need to redeem yourself anyways for reading Twilight and 50 Shades. Just get through the first few chapters and you’ll be hooked. Trust me. (Then read Redeeming Love by FR)
Curl up with this one. You’ll actually feel it hug you as you read it. Present over perfect beloved friends.
Jen Hatmaker speaks my love language, dramatic hyperbole. I understand her well, more importantly, it seems she understands me. Or at least that’s the feeling I get when reading her books. Read this, then jump into the deep end of grace. *Great audio version as well.
A great novel that will hook you quickly! The sequel is coming out in July!
Having a bad day? Let Jon Gordon fix it with any book of his. This is an energizing, motivating read. The audible version of this is amazing as well.
This book was recommended at a crucial time in my life. Love it. Quote it often. Consider this your recommendation.
This book is why I parent so perfectly. 🙂 My copy of this book, and the teen version, are dog eared on my nightstand. A great reference book for when your kiddos mess up. Hit the pause button and go find the chapter that applies!
You’ll either love me or hate me for recommending this book. Just choose to love me ok? The details in this book are revealed so beautifully. The story is an emotional one and a bit heavy. “…I ask you right here please to agree with me that a scar is never ugly. That is what the scar makers want us to think. But you and I, we must make an agreement to defy them. We must see all scars as beauty. Okay? This will be our secret. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived.” <3
A friend gave me this book years ago and it remains a favorite. It’s a beautiful, true story of everyday magic. Even if you don’t agree with her logic or believe her story. This world would be boring if we all had the same opinion.
A great read for Boy Moms! The same author wrote “Love and Respect” (the best relationship book ever. Seriously. Get off the crazy cycle and read it). This is applying the same respect principal to our little men.
Jeannette’s memoir is a “remarkable memoir of residence and redemption”. You will be in awe of what she has lived through and overcome. I couldn’t love this more.
Love Does is one of the loveliest, most authentic books. Bob Goff has a magical way of sneaking in lessons about Jesus, life, and love. I’ve read/listened to this book 9 times. Read it sister. Then read it again. www.lovedoes.org
Get ready to fall in love with Corrie Ten Boom. She is not only a survivor of Hilter’s concentration camps, but a lover and teacher of all that is good and holy. Her walk with God was a deep one we can all learn from.
A heart warming story of his gift of experience while bringing awareness to a great need…packed full of golden nuggets & life lessons throughout these pages. You will be changed and inspired. Lots of healing tears. “When circumstances drag on you, weighing you down to the point you think you can’t take another step, muster your courage, stay strong and keep walking. Don’t walk only when it’s convenient; don’t merely walk till you get tired; keep walking through it all. Walk to beautiful.”
It’s Willie. Need I say more? What’s funny is that this book actually made me a Willie fan!
A favorite, amazing author. Wall makes you feel, think, and ponder. In real time. This book is a “brutiful” southern family saga, written with such feeling, such emotion, that you get tied up in the story, in the characters, in the events.
