I posted about "15 books that will always stick with me" on Facebook in 2009. I decided to do it again, updating that list to include books that I've read in the last dozen years. So here are 15 books, in alphabetical order, that I think will always stick with me:
- Agape Love: A Tradition Found in Eight World Religions ~ by John Templeton, 1999
- The Gnostic Gospels ~ by Elaine Pagels, 1979
- The Great Transformation: The Beginning of Our Religious Traditions ~ by Karen Armstrong, 2006
- The Heart of Christianity: Rediscovering a Life of Faith ~ by Marcus J. Borg, 2003
- Herland ~ by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, 1915
- Honest to God ~ by John A. T. Robinson, 1963
- Little Women ~ by Louisa May Alcott, 1868
- Miss Rumphius ~ by Barbara Cooney, 1982
- My Sister's Keeper ~ by Jodi Picoult, 2003
- The Mythmaker: Paul and the Invention of Christianity ~ by Hyam Maccoby, 1986
- The Red Tent ~ by Anita Diamant, 1997
- The Social Construction of Reality ~ by Peter L. Berger, 1966
- Talk Before Sleep ~ by Elizabeth Berg, 1994
- Time and Again ~ by Jack Finney, 1970
- A Wrinkle in Time ~ by Madeleine L'Engle, 1962
I am currently re-reading The Social Construction of Reality ~ by Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann, that I told you about in a recent blog post. And now I want to re-read some of the other books on this list.

I've now added several of these to my wish list. I've read Wrinkle in Time, Miss Rumpius, Little Women, Red Tent, Talk Before Sleep, Time and Again, and My Sister's Keeper. I am always interested in taking a close look at the books others find to be their favorite reads.
