[quote]Good thing you didn't think of the Bible...[/quote]
Actually, the Bible was the first book I thought of, but I figured that was implied.

And I liked the Handbook of Christian Apologetics.

That sounds interesting. Tell me more about that one.

I'm trying to find something new to read. I like historical novels based on a true facts but embellished a little bit to make a good read.

2 really good Catholic book i enjoyed are 'Were on a mission from God' and 'Did adam and eve have belly buttons?' i cant remember the authors at the momant but there both very interesting and i recomened them both for anyone who want answers about the faith and is interested about learning more they also have good stuff you can you could use in debates to back up your faith
DAAEHBB? is full of questions about all aspects of the Catholic faith by teenagers which is good if your that age because there the same kind of questions going through your head as well !
