has any one read any good books lately? Relief Society in my branch recently started a book club and i'm actually really enjoying it. We just finished Little Women, which is a beautiful book and i highly recommend it. And i've just about finished this months book "My Sister's Keeper", which is a great book. Anyone else had a great read lately?

Going to start reading Chronicles of Narnia to my boys. Fun books when I was young.

I'd recommend the Analects of Confucius.

Since right now I seem to read a lot of books about serial killers I wont mention their titles on the LDS site. See, I want to be a criminal profiler for the FBI, so serial killers and their psyche really interest me. But before I got into that, I really enjoyed a lot of the LDS fiction. My favorite author in that category is Betsy Brannon Green. All of her books are fantastic. They have adventure, and a little romance too! If you wanna know more, just ask me and I'll give some other good LDS fiction books.

Hi, yes please, tell me about LDS fiction and any books that have appealed to you. I've kind of hit this reading slump (and sadly i haven't been back into reading all that long). i loved little women, and My Sister's Keeper. I just started Emma, but it's slow going - i like it, it's just not grabbing me the way the 2 previous books did. Our book club is about to start Shadow Of The Wind, which i haven't started yet. sorry it's taken me so long to reply, i have 2 small children who demand lots and lots of attention

some of my favorite LDS fiction books r the work and the glory, so good...and im big on the history of the world wars so the books children of the promise and hearts of the children are really good...the children of the promise books are in my opinion alot better then the second one but that is still good too.

I really have enjoyed-The Children of the Heart and The Children of the Promise Series-by Dean Hughes. Currently I am reading-Digging Deeper Discovering and Applying Life Changing Doctrines from the Book of Mormon-by Robert Eaton. i am enjoying it-I think I also enjoy it because he is in our ward and helped me coach my sons soccer team-and you seem to see the book differently when you know the author. Bodie Thoene is another great author-not a church author but great books! She has many different series and i have seen all of them sold in Deseret Book. I have also recently finished Gables of Legacy Series by Anita Stansfield-they are somewhat romantic, historical, church, etc... Hopefully this will help.
