Favorite Books from 2011

By Elizabeth Robertson Williams

Happy New Year!  Before we completely look forward, let's pop backward for just a bit.  I was blog hopping last week and came across Nester's post, Books I read in 2011.  Which gave me the wonderful idea of jotting down my favorite books from 2011.  I'm not what you would call an avid reader like my fried Trish, but here goes nothing!


Heart Strengthening:

Bittersweet, Shauna Niequist
Soul nourishing.  Thanks to my friend Megan for the recommendation and gift! 

One Thousand Gifts, Ann Voskamp
Life changing.

The Power of a Praying Wife, Stormie Omartin
The best marriage counseling $10 can buy!

Jonah: Navigating a Life Interrupted, Priscilla Shirer
A refreshing reminder that God gives us 2nd chances.


Heart Warming:

Black Heels to Tractor Wheels, Rhee Drummond
A classic love story.

The Undomestic Goddess, Sophie Kinsella
Frivolous & Fabulous!

Mini Shopaholic, Sophie Kinsella
Some girls have Twilight & Harry Potter, I have my beloved Shopaholic Series starring Becky Bloomwood. 

Books I Plan to Finish/Read in 2012:

The Paris Wife
I've read the first 20 pages at least 5 times, but am determined to stick with it!

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, Mindy Kaling
After the millionth rave review on the Changing Seasons blog, I just know I need to give it a go! 


As you can see, I have a lot more room in my 2012 lineup.  Have a favorite book from 2011?  Leave it in the comments below!
