I have just read "Brideshead Revisited" for the first time ( :bl: ) and found it to be very good, especially the end...

My all time favourite book is "The Nun's Story" by Kathryn Hulme, a most excellent book. I have lost count of the number of times I have read it. The film stars Audrey Hepburn, and I watch that often too. The book has lots of spiritual issues to grapple with, particularly obedience.

I also love "The Choice" by Sister Kirsty, who is writing under a pseudonym, of her experiences as a novice nun. It is a very deeply spiritual book, and another one can refer to again and again.

"In This House of Brede" by Rumer Godden is another good one about a religious community.

Can you guess my favourite kind of reading? ;)

“It is most laudable in a married woman to be devout,
but she must never forget that she is a housewife.
And sometimes she must leave God at the altar
to find Him in her housekeeping.”
~ St. Frances of Rome
