Books- Book List: My Journey Through Reading

I have recently finished reading a few books from the Book List I created in December and the following come highly recommended:


These are some of the titles that were on my Book List (that began around December):
  • By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept by Paulo Coelho ( A story about Love, partnership, spirituality, self-discovery and life commitment)

  • Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (For anyone who finds themselves frustrated with work, love and feel stuck in their lives.)

  • The Secret by Rhonda Byrne (began reading it Summer 2010) (if you want to regain the belief that everything is possible and be positive; this book can be a life changer)

  • A Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela (the incredible insight into a person's journey that was bigger than himself)

  • The Pilgrimage by Paulo Coelho (about self-discovery and an adventure everyone should take the time to make)

  • A Million Little Pieces by James Frey (despite the media controversy, amazing read about facing ourselfs the good, the bad and the really ugly)
