4-Star Rating

Recommended

We like these books. A lot. Some of our favorites—and many of the great classics—are in this section.

These books have memorable characters, good writing, strong themes, and great stories. Some of them may have a few too many content concerns to be in our general "highly recommended" category. That's not so much a judgment on the books themselves, but an encouragement to be discerning as you enjoy this excellent selection.
