Book Suggestions

So...I know that our book club kind of fizzled but I was think this morning how I have all of these books I want to read but no place to write them to remember them and I thought, instead of creating my own blog to keep them in, why not share them with all of you! So instead of a book club maybe we could use this blog as a book suggestion board.

You can write you favorite book, one you want to read, or if you need a suggestion for a book you can post that too. People can respond, give suggestions on what they've read, what they want to read or thoughts about whatever book they are reading. Pretty open forum. My one request is that if you can figure it out, try to post it on the blog instead of in e-mail. That way we can look back when we're looking for a good book and instead of having to sort through e-mail we can just pop onto this blog and take a look. If you have trouble, just shoot me an e-mail I can walk you through how to get on and post on the blog...if no one else is interested then I can just post books myself, which is also fine! Anyway, can't wait to see you all REAL soon!!!

Here are the books I've been thinking of recently:

Small Giants: Companies that Choose to be great instead of Big by Bo Burlingham

Play: How It Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination, and Invigorates the Soul by Stuart Brown

The Secret

Look me in the Eyes, living with Aspergers syndrome

The Four Hour Work Week

A tree grows in Brooklyn

Water for Elephants

Escape

19 Minutes

Into the Wild

In the Time of the Butterflies

  1. I have too many favorite books to even begin! I read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn in 8 grade, not my fave but probably because it was like 600 pages and I had to for school.
    I'm in the middle of Water for Elephants- excellent.
    I'm also reading A Severe Mercy- this is probably the best book I have read in a really long time.
    If you haven't read the Glass Castle or She's Come Undone- these are also must reads.
    Next on my list, I think I am going to tackle Mere Christianity!
