“You should never read just for "enjoyment." Read to make yourself smarter! Less judgmental. More apt to understand your friends' insane behavior, or better yet, your own. Pick "hard books." Ones you have to concentrate on while reading. And for god's sake, don't let me ever hear you say, "I can't read fiction. I only have time for the truth. Fiction is the truth, fool!" ~ John Waters, Role Models

Meet two couples during the 1960s- a proud pastor and his atheist wife, and a skeptical pastor and his devout wife as they go through adulthood trying to find harmony during life's imbalances. The subject of faith takes a backseat in this touching story that is more about building community and creating and sustaining relationships with people who have different ideologies from one another. ~ Reviewed by Laura Knapp

A short collection of stories from twelve different authors who have one thing in common, their periods. This was a refreshing read on a taboo topic that even most women are still too shy to talk about out loud. I definitely felt less alone hearing the relatable experiences that were explained with humor and understanding. ~ Reviewed by Laura Knapp

Captivating from the very first chapter, this journalistic endeavor follows three women as they reflect upon their sexual experiences over time. The author creates a descriptive and nonjudgmental atmosphere that allows the reader to view the world from overlooked and commonly misunderstood female perspectives. I believe that this is best nonfiction novel debut I think I have ever read! ~ Reviewed by Laura Knapp
