The Book List

These are some of the books I’ve read in the past two years. At first I was embarrassed that this list is so short and then I realized that not all my I’ve read books are here. These are just the books I thought were good enough to recommend to other people. I’ve read some serious crap in the past few years and I’m going to save everyone trouble by just not listing those books.

Anyway, these are 12 books I recommend, presented in the order that I read them:
