Really makes you think more seriously about how Satan is at work in our lives, and really helps you to better be on guard.

If you are curious about hell, this would be a great one to start with. It was a great afternoon read for me, and one that has lingered in my thoughts as I dwell on what might await us someday.

If you want to better understand love and all its forms, start here! It's rich, it's wise, it's insightful, it's incredible. The Four Loves // This one goes through the four main types of love- affection, friendship, erotic/romantic love, and the love of God. No matter where you are in your faith journey, there are amazing things to be learned from this one, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Mere Christianity // This is one of my all-time favorites, and this was my third time reading it through.
