Our Bookshelves

We don’t review books, we share gems that we have found. Originally, we reviewed books based on their discussion potential, but now it’s more about the inspiration they spark, and the connections they can make. Have a book that you’d like to share and pass along? Tell us why you picked up the book, why you kept reading and who you’d pass it to next.
