If you like Agatha Christie you might enjoy some of the British Library Crime Classics, who have reprinted many of the inter-war golden age of crime writing. They have dated somewhat but they are a nice read, like John Bude's The Sussex Down Murder. By the way Lois I love you autumn earrings :)
I read Atomic Habits a few years back and it was super helpful! - I've been using habit trackers from that day onwards. I will say that because I listened to the audiobook, some of the content has slipped my mind and I need a refresher. I'm inclined to buy a physical copy, maybe even getting duplicates to use as gifts.
Pro tip: You can return your audible books and get your credit back. I do this with books I won’t want to listen to again. (You can only do this a limited number of times in a set period) _currently listening to Once and Future King_
I would say that Jordan Peterson's 12 rules for life did help me. It's a book with clear pointers and good examples on how to develop a practical approach to the rules. I'm also fascinated to learn more about the life of the saints, read St. therese of liseux biography and found it very enlightening. As of recently i've been reading C.S Lewis's Screwtape letters. I'm excited about it, as I've thoroughly enjoyed his other books. I've read 3 so far (mere christianity, abolition of mal, and the problem of pain). Do you have any recommendation for a good christian novel ? Thank you
@Tiagogoncalvespsicologo I've somehow still not read 12 Rules for Life, will have to priotise it 🙈 Those all sound great. C.S Lewis is awesome, his Space Trilogy could definitely be classed as Christian novels.
great review. now i have to pick Atomic Habits up 😃. a life manual of sorts. Is Saints a unique mythos created by the author, or a revision of existing Christian mythos?
@kj6bbs Thanks! Saints is telling existing stories of the medieval Christian Saints, although the author chooses which Saints to include and which stories, sometimes telling their Legend and other times wonders attributed to them.

@@ClassicsandChristianity Thank you. It definitely is something I would read, as I do like a good myth. More onto the reading list pile...!
