Welcome to my library! Here are some of of the books I enjoy and consider important, as well as some I'm reading or looking to read.
The Bible
It is God's Holy Word that also contains the highest examples of from a plethora of literary genres. The Song of Songs is love poetry. The Psalms are even more poetry. The Proverbs, the Wisdom of Sirach and the Wisdom of Solomon are proverbial. The Book of Tobit, while it is very true history, it is written more like a classical fairy tale compared to the other history books of the Old Testament.
I'll write some more here once I become smarter and wiser.
