Bill Forgeard (bill_forgeard) | 8 comments Has anyone checked out listopia? It's a collection of lists of favourite/best books, in a million different categories, as voted on by goodreads users. There are quite a few Christian lists, but the content is predominantly Christian fiction and the like.

I think the Christian lists would benefit from some "reformed readers" votes!

Here's all the lists that are tagged as Christian (some of the most interesting lists are on page 2 and 3):

Bill Forgeard (bill_forgeard) | 8 comments I don't there are any "best reformed books" lists, if someone wants to make one! It's not hard, I've started a few.

Bill Forgeard (bill_forgeard) | 8 comments That one is a fascinating list. Actually the top few are pretty good -- lots of CS Lewis plus Tim Keller, John Bunyan, Francis Shaeffer, Augustine. And then at number 8, alas... the Shack!

Which is a great demonstration of why we should all go and vote :) A few votes for Ravi Zacharias, Tozer, Calvin's institutes etc would probably push the Shack at least down out of the top 10!

There is some good stuff hidden at the end of that list too.

benebean | 35 comments did anyone create a reformed reading list? I'm looking for a new book, but I'm always at the mercy of a couple limited libraries.

Bill Forgeard (bill_forgeard) | 8 comments There are a couple of lists of reformed books that have just been started, cast a vote on them while you're there:

This one is not exclusively reformed, but most of the books on it are from solid reformed authors:
