Good Books

Reading is one of my favorite pastimes. For many years, I have been drawn to books that edify, teach, encourage, or inspire me - books that are hopeful and/or helpful. Now, I am sharing those books with you!

This “at-a-glance” format, with brief summaries below each book image, will help you quickly identify your next uplifting read. Books are divided by genre and are listed in no particular order within the broad categories.

For some of these selections, I have written full BOOK REVIEWS - these will have links to the review, or you can click on the Book Review tab on the main menu to find them all.

Please know that I don’t always agree with every statement in every book. But I do attempt to put everything I read through a Biblical filter with discernment; I hope you will do that also.

I’ll update my Good Book List regularly, so check back often for more great suggestions to help you grow, feel encouraged, or simply relax into a good story!

Guillen has three PhDs, taught at Harvard, and is an Emmy award-winning (former) science news correspondent. He has the unique ability to take incredibly complex scientific concepts and make them understandable to anyone. He is also a Christian who demonstrates that intelligence and Biblical faith aren’t at odds. I also enjoy his podcast.
