Letting My Love of Books Be Shared With You...
Over the years, I've come to love a variety of genres.
Each author contributes to the creation of a work that sets forth imagination and awareness about our world.
In this lens, I'm going to showcase some authors and their works that I know to be truly amazing and worthy of your investment of time.
I highly recommend that even if you're set on sticking to one particular genre or author, such as horror master Stephen King, you allow yourself to experience the cultures other genres have to offer and see if any authors can satisfy your hunger for good reading material.
In the list below, you'll find links to some of the best fiction and non-fiction works I've come across to date. In just about every story, there's a lesson to be learned or a few nuggets of intriguing facts to absorb.
Please make sure you bookmark this page and refer to it as you find yourself needing a new book to read. It's a nourishing resource of written materials that feed the mind, body, and soul in a way that can only serve to better you over the years as it has myself.
