I am so happy with my reading practice this past year. I read books from my own collection and recently-published ones. I read both print and e-books, as well as a few audiobooks. There is fiction in there, a graphic novel, poetry, science, and popular culture: by far the most diverse reading list I’ve made it through in years.
- I, Robot / Isaac Asimov
- I Hope We Choose Love: A Trans Girl’s Notes from the End of the World / Kai Cheng Thom
- Self-Compassion / Kristin Neff
- White Fragility / Robin DiAngelo
- 1619 Project / Nikole Hannah-Jones
- Wide Sargasso Sea / Jean Rhys
- Braiding Sweetgrass / Robin Wall Kimerer
- Fall / Neal Stephenson
- Subtle Acts of Exclusion / Tiffany Jana and Michael Baran
- Maus / Art Spiegleman
- Giles Goat Boy / John Barth
- How to Raise an Antiracist / Ibram X. Kendi
- Out of Office / Charlie Warzel & Anne Helen Petersen
- You Feel It Just Below the Ribs / Jeffrey Cranor & Janina Matthewson
- Four Thousand Weeks / Oliver Burkeman
- On Poetry and Poets / T.S. Eliot (at least the “On Poetry” parts)
- Dracula / Bram Stoker
- 168 Hours / Laura Vanderkam
- Vineland / Thomas Pynchon
- What If 2 / Randall Munroe
- Four Thousand Weeks / Oliver Burkeman
- The Golden Compass / Philip Pullman
- Five Dialogues / Plato (mostly)
- Steppenwolf / Herman Hesse
For 2023, I plan to keep up my practice of making time for reading each day, rotating through books already owned, new popular fiction and non-fiction, and poetry. Here’s to another year on this rock with good books!
