You ever drag your feet looking for the next book to read?

Not anymore.

Here's the annual list of books I finished and books I didn't finish. Hopefully there are some good recommendations to keep you busy for awhile.

The best ones are denoted by asterisks, although please note I do not finish books I don't at least like a little bit, so they're probably worth the read.

I didn't differentiate between fiction and nonfiction, or if it was a re-read, or whether I read a real book, an eBook, or listened to an audio book. I also didn't include children's books, even though I read to my kids all the time. If you want to know whether I liked something (or why I liked something you thought was terrible), leave a comment!

A lot of these came from the library. We always take a big tote bag along, filled with books to return, and it comes home full of new books.

You can find more book recommendations on the book page, or on the previous years' records here (2017, 2015, 2014).
