I'm wondering if there is anyone who can give me a suggested reading list for someone who has been a practicing, scripture studying, faithful, and relatively knowledgable member of the LDS church? I'm beginning to purchase books for my personal library, and am a lover of authors such as Hugh Nibley, the Yorgason brothers, Orson Scott Card (fiction, of course)...hopefully this gives an idea of the level and type of books I'm interested in learning about and adding to my library. Thank you!

Here are some links to some books that I have read cover-to-cover several times. I say this not to brag, but to assure you that I feel the content of these books are relevant to your question and will positively and constructively contribute to your search for more knowledge.
"The Second Comforter: Conversing with The Lord Through the Veil" by Denver C. Snuffer, Jr.
This book was written by a lay member of the Church who claims to have seen the resurrected Lord in person! I believe he has. It is the most thorough and comprehensive treatment of how to receive the Second Comforter that I have seen to date.
"Following the Light of Christ into His Presence" by John M. Pontius
In my opinion, carefully applying the contents of this book will lead you to a Spiritual Rebirth, at a minimum.
"Obtaining Your Calling & Election" by Kevan Kingsley Clawson and Terri Hopkins Clawson
A startling revelation about the connection between Faith, Hope and Charity, and how they tie-into receiving your Calling & Election (and beyond).
"The Atonement of Jesus Christ" by Kevan Kingsley Clawson
Provides an intriguing new look at the nature of the Atonement. A must read for those who seek to understand how the Atonement functions in their lives!
To order: The Atonement of Jesus Christ
