A Daily Defense
I’ve tried to read other apologists’ books and could never wade through the too-deep explanations. This is easy reading on a day-to-day basis. Easy & interesting.

A Daily Defense
Just started it but it does appear to have many common non-Catholic statements with a Catholic explanation.

Logical explanations
I'm only about a quarter of the way through this book, but I've really enjoyed it so far. The questions addressed in this book seem very relevant, and I appreciate the logical and academic approach that they are addressed with.

A Great Book for Defending The Faith and for Strengthening One's Own Faith
Jimmy Akin does a great job giving succinct answers to a wide array of questions one may have about Catholicism. The book is laid out as having one question a day for 365 (plus one!) days. Each page has a different objection and an answer to that objection. If you just read one page per day you will definitely be a better apologist by the end! There are oftentimes also helpful tips or referrals to further reading if you want to go more in-depth on a question. It's also great to come back to questions if you need to brush up on how to respond to certain objections. This is a great book to better equip yourself to be able to defend our Faith against objections and also to strengthen our own foundations as Catholics.
