- Meet The Puritans by Joel Beeke: An excellent resource, though not necessarily for reading straight through
- Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse: Simply amazing and clearly among Wodehouse’s best! At times it is so good that it makes the rest of the Wodehouse canon seem “unquotable”.
- A Few Quick Ones by P.G. Wodehouse: Dashingly excellent
- How Right You Are Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse: Great!
- Wodehouse: A Life by Robert McCrum: Pretty good. I was critical at first, but I warmed up to it quite a bit.
- A Primer on Worship and Reformation: Recovering the High Church Puritan by Douglas Wilson: Sort of what one comes to expect from Wilson.. fresh, searching, plucky, and worth reading
- The Majesty of the Law by Sandra Day O’Conner: Fairly interesting
- Up from Slavery: An Autobiography by Booker T. Washington: Informative and compelling.
- The Mantra of Jabez by Douglas Jones: Witty, sarcastic, and downright silly. But sadly an insightful into the state of modern Christianity.
- The Proposal by Anton Chekhov: It’s crafty and I like it, although the ending is weird.
