Sforim

A siddur is very useful. After that I would recommend a chumash.

Career of Happiness, True Joy in the Home

Rejoice O Youth!

both by Rabbi Avigdor Miller

If you buy and read Rav Avigdor Miller’s books, then you can tell us what he really says for real.

Mesilas Yeshorim.

Orchos Tzaddikim (the ways of the righteous,in english)

over 30 chapters on different topics of things to help you improve in life from ruchnius to gashmius (spirituality to physicality)

Writersoul, I love Horeb. One of my favorite seforim.

Daniel123, if you liked the Garden of Emunah, you might enjoy other Breslov based seforim, like Meshivas Nefesh. The Breslov Research Institute has translated many Breslover seforim into English and I’ve really enjoyed some of them. Check out the Bookstore on their site.

Matan1- I just took out Halakhic Man from the library- I actually first read it exactly two years ago in seminary (over Sukkos). Parts didn’t sit well with me, but I discussed those parts with a rav who’s one of R Soloveitchik’s talmidim and I’m going to see if it goes better this time. After that I need to get to Lonely Man of Faith.

gofish- I actually first got recommended Horeb a couple of years ago here in the CR! I was supposed to learn it with a teacher, but unfortunately it didn’t go well. I’m now trying to get a chavrusa in it with a friend, but something always seems to come up…

The parts about his attitude toward death, for the most part. It seemed very kalt to me, especially as I read it around the time of the death of a close relative of mine. (Some other stuff as well, but I think that was just stuff that I wasn’t used to/that didn’t work so much for me.) The particular rav I talked to told me to look at it as a way of disagreeing and making a foil for Mesilas Yesharim, which takes the opposite approach- so I’m going to reread through that lens and see if it sits better with me.
