Top Books List

Let's start this off by saying that I LOVE reading a good book, there are few things more satisfying than flipping through (or swiping, thanks to the kindle software) the last page of a good story line. I just finished...

I finished the entire series yesterday and oh. my. word. They are absolutely fabulous! I cannot wait for the movie to come out and in fact I am sort of sad I am done with them because well, they were THAT good. If you have not read them, do not let the post apocalyptic storyline scare you (because it did me, at first) ...it is a MUST read.

After finishing this I was thinking about "what are my favorite books...." and to be honest I really cannot rank a first, second, or third because so many stories or fantastic for many different reasons so instead I will just list off a few of my favorites.

The Help - What an incredibly eye opening and insightful/humorous/heart wrenching story. I loved the book and thought that the movie was actually a pretty good depiction, but you can never out-do the book. The author also went to Alabama... Roll Tide =)

The Great Gatsby - This book to me is a classic, I think we had to read it in 10th grade and since then I have read it numerous times. I am stoked that they are making this into a movie with Leo Dicaprio --- it better be good. I just love love love the story.



Redeeming Love - This is hands down one of the best and most riveting books I have ever read, it is sort of lengthy but I could not stop turning the pages. It is deemed a Christian novel, it parallels the book of Hosea in the Bible. But you could read this and not know that and it is still an incredibly compelling and amazing love story. I have read it multiple times and it still astounds me.
