I was inspired to make this list after reading Time Magazine’s 10 Best Books article (thanks to DeathbyUlysses for the link)
Here’s my list of books I read in the last year that I found to be particularly moving…
1. The Dharma Bums – by Jack Kerouac
2. Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia: How the Whole World Is Conspiring to Shower You With Blessings – by Rob Brezsny
3. Fidelity: Five Stories – by Wendell Berry
4. Blessed Be the Peacemakers — : Christ’s Teachings of Love, Compassion, and Forgiveness – by Wendell Berry
5. Franny and Zoe – by J. D. Sallinger
I forgot to mention two other books that definitely merits mentioning…
