Summer Reading

Summer Reading

What are you enjoying reading this summer?  What do you plan to read?

 

Let’s make a Top Ten Summer Book List on this site by suggesting some titles.

 

I’m enjoying several books at the moment.

 

Bonhoeffer, by Eric Metaxas, a biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the well-known Lutheran pastor who opposed Hitler in Nazi Germany.

 

The Leadership Challenge, by Kouzes and Posner.  So far, very challenging on understanding your values and checking your actions against them.

 

Quitter:  Closing the Gap Between Your Day Job and Your Dream Job, by Jon Acuff.  It’s pretty neat learning about my dream job from a book written by my son.  And, it’s a good book.

 

Radical, by David Platt. I have been off and on listening to this book on audio, and reading it.  I need to let some of its principles sink in.  This is not a book one reads.  One must respond in some way.

 

These are just a few that have my attention right now.  My list might be a bit imbalanced towards the intensity side and I probably need to download a good novel on my Kindle.  I also enjoy books on history and science.

 

Any recommendations?
