These are a few of my favorites in the categories I have put them in. These are the ones that I refer back to from time to time. I think it's nice to do that, kinda brush up on what you know. I am overrun by books awaiting my time, my "To Read" list is ever growing. I suggest and recommend these titles to friends all the time and so I recommend them all to you. And if you have any suggestions for things that I might like, please leave a comment. I'd love to hear it!
