1) The Brothers Karamazov, Fyoder Dostoevsky: Simply put, the best book I have ever read.
2)Law, Legislation, and Liberty, F.A. Hayek: If you want to blow your mind and look at politics and policy in a completely new way, read this book.
3) The Theological Foundations of the Mormon Religion, Sterling M. McMurrin: Mormonism for the thinking person. The full theological power of Mormonism unleashed. This is not your mothers sunday school lesson.
4)The Harry Potter Series, J.K. Rowling: The most entertaining books ever written. 'Nuff said.
5) The History of Love, Nicole Krauss: I dare you not to love it.
6) The Fountainhead, Ayn Rand: Rand at her finest. Philosophy is easier to stomach and purely brilliant writing.
7)East of Eden, John Steinbeck: A little tedious at first but culminates wonderfully.
8) Faust, Goethe: As much as I like Shakespeare, and I do so like my Shakespeare, I have to say that Faust comes out on top.
9) Hamlet, Shakespeare: Having just said what I did, Hamlet is still a masterpiece.
How should I wrap this up...
10) 1984, George Orwell: Guess I oughta put at least dystopian novel on here, and there simply isn't a better or more important one than 1984.
Yup so there is my humble list. I would highly recommend all of them. I wonder what Heidi's list will look like. Quite different I'm sure.

um just so you know this site is adorable. jeffrey is currently working on one for us, but considering we are way too lazy to write a whole lot itll probably just be pictures :) and i dont think that jeffrey has read ten books in his life (unless you count picture books) so i dont think we'll be able to do something quite as impressive as you guys :) but im glad i can look and check up on you guys on this!
