Books

What have I been reading?

I love reading and listening to books for both learning and enjoyment. Below is a list of books that I have read sorted by the year of reading.

Note: this list was initially (05/04/2021) generated from an export of my Aubible library and as such is missing a number of titles and/or detailed information. I intend to include titles from other formats (physical, eBook) along with more detailed reviews in the future.
