I love consuming the content of books. Men and women have poured their blood, sweat, and tears into crafting a book worth reading.
Years of knowledge are condensed into 200 or so words. Or new worlds are available to us when we crack open a book.
Knowing that, and the fact that I had 2 Audible credits (get a free trial to Audible by clicking on the link) left, I took to Facebook to see what I should read.
Once I asked the question, the book recommendations poured in. I was overwhelmed with the response.
In total, 33 books were recommended at the time I wrote this. Many I’d already read.
In honor of those who shared their book recommendations with me, I wanted to share them with you.

Those are the book recommendations from my friends. There’s a lot to digest. And I still had to choose 2!
So, what did I spend my Audible credits on? Well, I actually purchased 3 of the recommended books –
Creating Magic
Into Thin Air
Moving Mountains
I’m excited to dig into these 3 books, especially Into Thin Air about the deadliest season in the history of Mount Everest and Moving Mountains as prayer is something I’m working on.
