InHisHeart726 (hope I got your name right!), definitely get St. Francis de Sales' Introduction to the Devout Life and his others:
"Treatise on the Love of God"
"Consoling Thoughts of St. Francis de Sales" - maybe hard to find, old
"The Sermons of St. Francis de Sales for: Lent,; Advent and Christmas; Our Lady; and the Eucharist" (all separate books)
And any other books by him like a book of his Letters and books/writings of St. Jane de Chantal. He is a great writer - and a Doctor of the Church. He is the Saint of Love and I've read many places that he is where St. Therese got much of her "Little Way" as he wrote, taught, preached the same and she read St. Francis de Sales as a young girl.
Some sites with his writings, thoughts: http://www.theworkof...ons/F_Sales.htm and http://www.feastofsaints.com/fdes.htm

Well, it looks like I'll be sending my mom to the bookstore after work tomorrow! :)) She told me that if I ever wanted a book there to ask her and she'd get it for me. She works close by, too. :)
