Recommended Reading

Below is a list of books all of which can, at the very least, be categorized as "worth a read or two" (or seven if you are really keen). If you are a student, chances are that you are already burdened with much work and reading. However, these books would not be recommended if they are not truly educational, thought provoking and probably good for your soul. Admittedly, older youth would probably get more out of these books than the younger ones; but then again, if you want to learn and you like to read, you are encouraged to try - you just might like them and learn something...

Of the list below, the Highly Recommended ones are:
Orthodoxy, G.K. Chesterton
Of The Imitation Of Christ, St Thomas à Kempis
The Best Things In Life, Peter Kreeft
The Abolition Of Man, C.S. Lewis
Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis
Till We Have Faces, C.S. Lewis
The Lord Of The Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien

Last Update (Thu, 20.NOV.2008):
