Recommended Reading

For those of you interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith, these are books that I recommend. I have chosen books that I have known to convey authentic Catholic teaching. This list is a work in progress, so please continue to check back. I have included links where the books may be purchased, but I don't get a commission on the sales.

If you are looking for a book on a subject not listed here or just want to go book shopping, here are the Catholic publishers I recommend:

Note that, although I recommend Servant books, I do not recommend their parent company, St. Anthony Messenger Press. They have some good books, but some of their works are by known dissenters. I would steer clear of Catholic Update even though it is popular in a lot of parishes. I do recommend TAN Books with reservations. They have many very good works, but a few of their books are from traditionalists who dissent from Vatican II.

I strongly recommend, for the most part, avoiding Paulist Press, Twenty-Third Publications, and Orbis Books. They mainly publish books not faithful to the Magisterium. The only time I will buy a book from one of those publishers is if I either know the author or have a recommendation from someone I trust.
