    To me one of the beast reads is Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. Inspiring, uplifting and really makes you stop and think for a while. I can only recommend it to everyone 🙂

    By the way, let me also recommend you my blog: http://loahelpforyou.blogspot.hu/
    which has started this year, so there are not too many posts yet, but I’d love to share my thoughts and ideas with the world, so go ahead 🙂
