My Sister's Keeper, Jodi Picoult

Really compelling story about a girl who was genetically engineered to be a donor for her sister with cancer and sues her parents for the rights to her body so she won't have to donate her kidney. The book takes several points of view (mother, father, bro, sis, lawyer). I really enjoyed it. Warning - the book is WAY BETTER than the movie. Skip the movie, for real. It doesn't do justice to the beauty of the story.


Breaking Free: Discovering the Victory of Total Surrender, Beth Moore

This is a Beth Moore classic and I wondered if it would live up to the hype and....it did! I read it during a personal retreat and while I was familiar with a lot of the content, it was really, really beneficial to refreshing me spiritually. I think it would be great to do this as a group study (and thousands of people have) and recommend it highly!


The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism, Tim Keller

Keller examens reasons for and against believing in God. It's kind of "heady" and wasn't a book I wanted to curl up with and read in bed....but, it is really powerful. It's a book every Christian should have in their personal library. I'm happy to see an intelligent, articulate Christian represent the faith in a respectable way.
