Here are some good books I've recently read:
"The Single Issue" by Al Hsu. I highly recommend it for single people and even married people. It gives an excellent Biblical perspective on singleness and the church.
"Talk to the Hand" by Lynne Truss. A hilarious critique of modern British manners- or lack of them. Again, I recommend it.
"Super Crunchers - How Anything Can be Predicted" by Ian Ayers. Yeah, I'm a geek, but you already knew that. This follows in the vein of "Freakonomics" but has a slightly different take. It is somewhat tied to what I do for a living so it's interesting to see all the other applications he talks about.
Here are some books that I've recently acquired and am looking forward to reading:
"Desiring God" by John Piper...a classic that I want to read.
"The Dawkins Letters - Challenging Atheist Myths" by David Robertson
"A God Entranced Life: The Legacy of Jonathan Edwards" by John Piper and Justin Taylor
"The Reason for God" by Tim Keller - I've just started this and the first chapter is already very interesting!
Here are some books I've purchased in the past that I still need to read:
"Eat. Love. Pray" by Elizabeth Gilbert
"The Glass Castle" by Jeanette Walls
It looks like I should hold off on buying new books for awhile...

When looking for cover ideas for work, the cover of "Eat, Love, Pray" caught my eye. I thought it was a book about food though (like a cook or food reviewer or diet book) until I read the back cover! Sounds more interesting than a food book anyway!
I've started "The Reason for God" but haven't finished it. I like what I've read so far!
