Summer reading list update:

So my Dr. Brown class for this next fall is Modern Christian Writers. As usual, I have a reading list for her class. This summer it's about 20 books (5,000 pages). So far the books have been great:

"Lilith" by Gordon MacDonald was one of the first science fiction books written. The basic story makes you feel like you're in a weird dream and it's kind of confusing to follow. However, it's really good and I highly recommend it, especially because it ends up having a spiritual allegory aspect to it
"Orthodoxy" by GK Chesterton was by far my favorite book so far. It's basically his explanation of how he went from a Pagan to an Agnostic to a Christian. He was a brilliant man and most of the book is his arguments against those arguments made against Christianity. Not your typical light summer reading, but great if you're up to it.
"The Man Who was Thursday" by GK Chesterton was great! Easy reading and definitely readable in a day. It's basically a double agent thriller with a spiritual twist at the end. Very funny too.
"An Experiment in Criticism" by CS Lewis was not exactly a "Christian" book. The basic premise is looking at literary criticism from the opposite point of view that most critics take. I found it interesting as an English major, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you're interested in lit crit.
"Till We have Faces" by CS Lewis is nice if you're looking for fiction and lighter reading. It is his adaptation of the love story between Cupid and Psyche. Not my favorite, but he is a great writer and I enjoy reading anything from him.

Well, that's it so far. 5 down and 15 more to go! Up next is "Descent into Hell" by Charles Williams. So has anyone else read anything good? I'll add it to my "Books I haven't read and want to read but won't get around to reading them anytime soon" list :-)
