Books I’ve Read in the last 12 months

This is NOT a book review- whew, maybe I’ll launch into something like that eventually.

This is simply a list of most of the books I’ve read in the last year, give or take. I’m sure there are some I’ll forget and add later.

Supposedly, Make Twain said something like this:

The man who doesn’t read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.

And, I also like this one:

If you don’t read good books, you’re simply rearranging your prejudices

So, here’s my list in no particular order. Let me know if you’ve also read and enjoyed (or hated!!) any of the books below.
