Wow you sure read a lot. That is impressive. My High School English teacher was right. I wished I had listened more closely to her. That said, how about the books No Easy Day, and Not a Fan. And to go back and pull out and old standby, The World’s Greatest Salesman. You are an impressive young man Pastor Graves. Merry Christmas to your and yours.

Benny…never too late bro!

Merry Christmas to you too.

Good choices, Josh. I read several of these myself. I’m reading “The Storytelling Animal” right now (loving it), and have “Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus” in the queue for 2013.

The best I read this year is “52 Lies Heard in Church Every Sunday” by Steve McVey (although don’t take the title personally…it doesn’t apply to every church, ha). It breaks down our churchy cliches and zones in on Jesus and grace.

Thanks Lisa. Excellent suggestion.
I’ll check it out. Thanks!

i’ve read a fair amount of books this year—stieg laarson, hunger games, e.l. james, janet evanovich, etc! i’m adding ‘read more intellectually stimulating books’ to my new year goals list! thanks for sharing your favorites!

Great list, Amanda. Thanks. JG

Josh, I’m glad you enjoyed Walking in the Dust. Thanks for putting it on your list. LT

Oh, and by the way, I agree about “Being Wrong.” It was a favorite of mine this past year.

Lois. Thanks! Love your work. Peace. Keep up the great work.

I think Harvard Frosh are required to read it. Great idea.
