Which of these books (I’m Happy for You (Sort Of… Not Really) by Kay Wills Wyma,ย Humilitas by John Dickson,ย The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey, andย The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman) would you pick up to read and why? Is it the cover that draws you? The title? The description?

I guess you did miss it! As you can guess from the title, it’s about humility ๐
