Good Books

I enjoy reading, and read extensively--or at least I used to.  Time to read (or to do a variety of other things I'd like to do) seems rarer than it used to.  I've compiled this list for those who, like me, may enjoy reading but have limited time and so value the opinions of other readers.  Unlike men, all books are not created equal, and that's true of those on this list.  I believe all are well worth reading, however, or I would not have included them here.  As time permits, I hope to write a brief review for each book.  There are a variety of topics and styles represented, including fiction, biography, devotional, and doctrinal.  I've arranged the list alphabetically by title.

All of the books listed on this page can be accessed at Amazon.com by clicking on a book title.  There you'll find (in some cases) helpful reviews by others who've read the book; and if you so choose, you can purchase it online.  I hope you find this list to be a useful tool in your own earnest pursuit of the Truth of  God.
