I just finished Father Fiction. Two days ago. Agreed, great book.
I'm going to check out a few of these, they look good! I enjoy nonfiction, but the only ones that really stick out in my mind as having an impact on me are "Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture" by Ariel Levy, "Self-Made Man: One Woman's Journey into Manhood and Back Again" by Norah Vincent, and "The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite" by Dr. David Kessler. I highly recommend all three!
I do enjoy nonfiction but cannot think of 5 that I loved off the top of my head. C.S. Lewis "Mere Christianity", of course. I've read so many parenting books that those immediately pop into mind but also all run together.
You've piqued my interest in Margin and Father Fiction.
