Books

This is a list of books I’ve read, those I’ve purchased and am waiting to read, and those I’ve abandoned part way through. This list is relatively new—I started keeping track in the middle of 2024.

Did you know you can listen to all the books you want with an Audible Plus Subscription?

My abandoned list is relatively large. I give myself permission to bail out of books that I find myself flogging through for one reason or another. This doesn’t mean they’re bad books. In many cases my interests just change before I can finish. I’ve also been forced to add books to the list when they were removed from the subscription service I was using to read them.

In 2024 I learned that reading multiple books at the same time is a really bad idea for me. For the forseable future I plan to focus on a single book at a time.
