Summer Reading List

If all goes according to planned, I will hopefully have read most of these books by the end of summer. The reason I will probably not get to all of them is because some are pretty lengthy with heavy duty ideas. I plan on writting a short blog after I have read each one. I have already read The Great Divorce and plan to blog on it sometime this week. I am currently reading How to Stay Christian in College. I also read The Abolition of Man last summer, but that book is so deep that you almost need to read it 2-4 times.

The Abolition of Man, C.S. Lewis

C.S. Lewis Explores Vice and Virtue, Gerard Reed

The Four Loves, C.S. Lewis

God in the Dock, C.S. Lewis

The Great Divorce, C.S. Lewis

How to Stay Christian in College, Jay Budziszewski

How to Think about the Great Ideas, Mortimer Adler

Miracles, C.S Lewis

The Symposium, Plato

Ten Philosophical Mistakes, Mortimer Adler

The Trial and Death of Socrates, Plato

The World’s Last Night, C.S. Lewis

Yes, I know, a ton of C.S. Lewis' works. He is currently my favorite author and I plan on reading all of his published works. Also, many of these books are philosophical. I made my list like this because: 1) I want to be as prepared as possible considering I will be a Philosophy major in a couple months, and, 2) I just flat out love philosophy. If anyone wants to talk philosophy, know that I am always available for a good discussion.

Note: This list is subject to change throughout the summer.
