No Cure for Being Human: (And Other Truths I Need to… par Kate Bowler

I requested this from the library because someone recommended it but I don't really do self-help books. If I were going to, this is the sort of self-help book I would read because the entire premise seems to be that self-help is nonsense and (spoiler!) there is no cure for being human. I mostly skim read it but it's fairly well-written and structured so I would absolutely recommend this to people determined to read this sort of thing.

Everything Happens for a Reason: And Other Lies I've… par Kate Bowler

This is a wonderful, truthful and funny memoir about a very hard time in the author's life. For me, I got to reflect upon my own beliefs about my spirituality, my views on other religions, and just about humanity in general as I read and explored the world through the author's eyes. It was a little unorganized and skipped or didn't fully stay on one linear line in the paragraphs and/or passages, otherwise it was beautifully written.
