There's nothing better than getting lost in a good book!  And there's so many fantastic books out there that can inform, inspire, entertain and enlighten you in your faith.  Check here each week for our 'Book of the Week' choice from Jeromes.co.nz.

Book of the Week
GK Chesterton is sometimes referred to as the most unjustly neglected writer of our time. One reason might be his versatility and the inability for modern thinkers, theologians, and commentators to pigeonhole him. We challenge you to enjoy his remarkable style, eloquence, and faith-based writing at this joyous time of the year. In this edition of Advent and Christmas Wisdom, each day's reflection includes a selection from one of Chesterton's finest works, a suitable bible verse, an appropriate prayer, and an action-oriented exercise. Readers will find the format stays the same, but this addition to Liguori's bestselling series is truly a refreshing, prayerful preparation for the coming of Christ at Christmas.

 In this remarkable tour of the Catholic world, George Weigel helps us understand how Catholicism fosters what Flannery O'Connor called "the habit of being". Taking the reader by the hand, Weigel embarks on a journey to Catholic landmarks as diverse as Chartres Cathedral and St. Mary's Church in Greenville, South Carolina; the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem and G.K. Chesterton's favourite pub; the grave of a modern martyr in Warsaw, and the Sistine Chapel.

More on Jeromes.co.nz

Jerome's is a New Zealand bookshop, offering a unique collection of hand-picked books.

We are not a large New Zealand book store, nor do we aspire to be one. Instead, we are selective - every book in our shop is hand-picked on the basis that it in some way informs, uplifts and elevates the mind and heart, or promotes excellence. On our shelves you will find:

  • A selection of the classics and fine literature
  • Biographies and autobiographies that inform, uplift or inspire
  • Books on parenting, marriage and relationships
  • Catholic books - on the Church, the Catholic faith and its spirituality
  • Books about culture, people, events and philosophy

Here at Jerome's we have catholic, that is, universal tastes. We aim to be eclectic, but interesting; to inspire excellence, challenge ideas and stimulate thought.
