Book Reccomendations

I've read a couple of good books lately and I thought I'd share:

A History of the Jews, by Paul Johnson: if you’re a fan of history I’d highly recommend it. Johnson’s writing style is a great mix of facts linked to through stories. Don’t let its size daunt you its very readable.

Restore My Soul, Reb. Nachman: The great grandson of the Baal Shem Tov, this book was put together by later students of the Rebbe. Its about the redemption of the soul and it seeks to teach us that despite our many trials and hardships god is with us always.

Both of these books spoke to me in very deep ways as I read though them, maybe they'll speak to you as well.
