Reading --- what are your favorites?

I Heard the Owl Call My Name, read in grade school.  A priest in Alaska (?) working with Native Americans and gains perspective.
City of Joy, read as adult.  A Polish priest moves to a poor slum in Calcutta -- also gains perspective.  A great GREAT book.
The Cry of the People, classic by Penny Lernoux.  A study of the Catholic Church in Latin America during the 1960s-1980s.  Makes you proud. I read it in 2001.
Fifty Years in a Jealous Marriage.  Of course!  Rev. Jim Lex' memoirs that I co-wrote during the 1990s.
The Secular Journals of Thomas Merton.  Found a copy at my parents.  It was my Granny Long's.  70 years old and still pertinent.  Easy to read, too.

What are your favorite reads that are about Catholics?  And how good is The Power and the Glory?
