My Favorite Books

This is a list of my recent favorite books.  I mostly read nonfiction books: about raising kids, being healthy, and my Christian walk.  I also love to check out craft books and cook books from the library.  I'll try to add a brief description if the title is not self explanatory.  I plan to update this list as I read more.
