Here are three books I recommend from what I read in March. Once a month we share our current reading lists at Jennifer’s.
Books I Recommend
1. The Path Between Us
An Enneagram Journey to Healthy Relationships
by Suzanne Stabile
My review of The Path Between Us
This book on the Enneagram, a personality typing system, specializes in relationships. Specifically, how to deal with your own personality type and those of the other eight types. Suzanne Stabile is also the author of The Road Back to You, a great primer on the Enneagram. This newest book goes one step further, focusing on practical ways to get along better.
2. An American Marriage
by Tayari Jones
This novel caught me off guard. It begins with a love story between Celestial and Roy. And continues through ups and downs of an unexpected situation. It was painful to read at times (I still have mixed feelings about it). But it is a culturally-signicant book for insights into circumstances I have no experience with. It’s an Oprah’s Book Club Selection.
3. A Gentleman in Moscow
by Amor Towles
This sweet novel started a little slow to me, but I’m glad I didn’t give up. Beginning in 1922, Rostov the Count receives an unorthodox sentence: house arrest in a hotel across the street from the Kremlin. For years. It gives insight in Russian history and provides laughs as well as tears.
