Recs if you like Orthodoxy...

This is an ongoing list of great Catholic reads (of “classics” that are often recommend and just good Catholic books). I have personally read every book on this list.

And it goes without saying that a good translation of Scripture with the deuterocanonicals (the books removed by the Protestant Reformation) should top this list.

I hope this list can be helpful to someone. This list is in no particular order. Open to suggestions for additions in the comments.
