That's a great one! I read a lot of "business" type books, and I feel like a lot of them are basic or repetitive. But I really got some good stuff out of the ONE Thing.

I LOVE Mere Christianity. I read it for the first time in high school, and then again 2 years ago I think.

I love Screwtape. Haven't read it in years though. I should do a reread soon!

Those are awesome books, although I haven't heard of all of them before.

I love Erik Larson, and read The Devil in the White City last year. Definitely a favorite.

Wow, there are so many great books on this list!

I ended up finishing All of Grace, The Expository Genuis of John Calvin, and Crush it last week. And I'm currently reading Reset, Something Rotten, and Lord of Chaos.

These books all look amazing!

Hey everyone! We just wanted to welcome you all to this group, where we will be discussing books, the reading challenge, and all things literary! We hope that this group will provide encouragement and motivation to all as we work towards our reading goals!

So to kick it off, why don’t you share what your first read of the year will be? I’ll start: for my first book of 2019, I’ll be re-reading Reset by David Murray.
