Book Recommendations.
I have a list of all the books that I have read available here, but that is really for my own benefit. I can keep track of what I read, and I sometimes go back and reread interesting books.
I haven’t ventured into making book recommendations, but I will now do so here. The list below is not in any particular order, and I’ll update it regularly if any new books that I read fit in.
