My Top Five Books

I am soooo thrilled to share today’s post with y’all!!

Y’all know how much I love to read. Some people train for marathons, some people love to bake in their free time, I read. Lately, I have been thinking about how life changing some of the books I’ve read have been and wanted to share them AND give copies of them away!! 🙂

I am not only sharing the top five books that have changed my life, but also the top five books of 9 other women that consistently inspire me!

Top 5 Books

READ SOME AMAZING BOOKS:

I’ve intentionally asked them to only share with me their top five without going into detail because I think we can all get something different out of the books we read. AND this post would have been the length of a book itself. ; ) Check these books out on Amazon through the links. If they sound appealing, download the Kindle sample. If you don’t have a Kindle or iPad, get the Kindle app for your phone. Read all the samples that interest you and then pick to read only the books that really resonate with you. Book reading shouldn’t be overwhelming. It should be exciting!!

GET INSPIRED:

Definitely don’t forget to click the links to these gals! These ladies are not only making things happen, but they are doing so gracefully and generously and I and consistently inspired by the thoughts they share and even the products and services they offer.

  • This is so excited! My goal of reading 12 books this year will definitely be checked off if I won all of these reads!

  • Some of these have been on my reading list for a while & I will definitely be adding a few more now!

  • You are inspiring me to dive into reading! These books look incredible. I am really interested in reading Margin, 7, Unglued, Love Does, and of course many others. Thank you for this motivation 🙂

  • This is such a LOVELY giveaway! Thank you so much for the amazing offer!
    I have been feeling terribly uninspired lately and I am definitely going to start looking into some of these treasures to get motivated/inspired once again! Thanks so much for sharing!

  • I am searching for my groups next Bible Study. We enjoyed Unglued. I love some of these books on the list. Do you have a top 5 list of Bible studies? I would love some suggestions!

    • Ah! It’s been so long since I’ve done a Bible study with a specific book but I have heard really good things about The Armor of God by Priscilla Shirer. Our church is having a BS this summer for that book and I wish I could make it happen with the new little one! Also, Anything by Jennie Allen as questions in the back. Her book has seriously changed my life radically. I read it on my own but I’d love to read with others again!! And of course, The Finishing School a lot of people have been doing as a study together and I’ve had a lot of good feedback on that! 🙂
