I’ve always wanted to read 1984 it seems like an interesting book
It really is. Right to the last sentence, which is chilling. One summer the 1990s, I read 1984, Brave New World, and We. All were good. But 1984 is the best.

I’ll have to buy that book or check it out at my library

Well of course the Bible, Foxes book of Martyrs, pretty much anything by CS Lewis, D L Moody, A W Tozer, and a few others
Good to read about the martyrs, indeed; good to link what they suffered to specific Biblical truth.

I'm a book person, so this is really hard....there are so many. Off the top of my head:

Hinds Feet in High Places and Mountain of Spices by Hannah Hurnard
How to be Your Own Selfish Pig by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay
The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis (love C.S.Lewis)
Lost Horizon by James Hilton
(sigh) there's more...many more

Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man by G.K. Chesterton

(The latter C.S. Lewis credited as the key contemporary book in his conversion to Christianity. Also, Dean Koontz described reading "Orthodoxy and it had a powerful effect. Then I read The Everlasting Man, which I think was the better of the two. Together they were like a one-two punch.")

I also love Life of Christ by Fulton Sheen.

(The Bible, I take, goes without saying as being at the top of the list.)
