My wife actually has this. True story.

A few I've enjoyed:

~ "The Extended Phenotype" by Richard Dawkins
~ "The Miracle of Theism" by J. L. Mackey
~ "Plowshares & Pruning Hooks" by D. Brent Sandy (who was actually a professor of mine in college)
~ "The Prophetic Imagination" by Walter Brueggemann
~ "The Great Philosophers" by Stephen Law
~ "A Year With Dietrich Bonhoeffer" (fantastically inspirational)
~ "Scaling the Secular City," "Christianity and the Nature of Science," and "Love Your God with All Your Mind" by J. P. Moreland
~ "The Myth of a Christian Nation" by Gregory Boyd

I have most of these on my bookshelf. If you live in the Akron area, you'd be free to borrow them.

This might be enlightening to you.

You should not start a sentence with the word "so".

If you like history, anything by David McCullough. Easy to read and one of America's great writers. I'd suggest John Adams or 1776.
