One of my passions and pastimes is reading. I focus on two basic genres: Spiritual (on the non-fiction side, and this one often focuses on either Spiritual Development or Men’s Issues) and Suspense novels (on the fiction side). Below is a list of books and/or authors I highly recommend (note that I am not listing the non-fiction books as they are personal preference). This is (and probably always will be) a work in progress.

No Brainer
