“In the case of good books, the point is not to see how many of them you can get through, but rather how many can get through to you.”
Mortimer J. Adler

First name basis with the author? Is he a friend? Thanks for reading!

This is a great list! I’m currently working my way through Congo by Michael Crichton and Eeny Meeny by M.J. Alridge. I’m adding these to my amazon list!
I haven’t read Michael Crichton since high school. Maybe I should put him back on my radar!
I used to read all the time, but last year didnt even read a book! will have to get back into it this year
Indeed. Just a few pages a day will add up quick.
I’m also looking forward to Unstuffed! Education and the Commercial Mindset looks like a good one also!
Agreed! And Unstuffed is Ruth’s best book yet. I was able to read an advanced review copy. I had until April to read it to write my review, but I couldn’t wait!
love a good book list, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for stopping by!
I think I will have to check out, “Piece Of Mind”, after seeing your post, I went and read a couple of synopsis & it looks pretty good.
Agreed! I’m a sucker for books about the mind, and I love exploring it through fiction, which is why I’m a sucker for Murakami. Definitely let me know what you think if you read it.
I’m a total bookworm so I love new reading suggestions! I hadn’t heard of most of these, except for Ruth Soukup’s new book which I am excited to read. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely. Ruth’s book is her best yet! I was able to read an advanced review copy. Thanks for stopping by.
Some great books on your list here! I wouldn’t mind reading Soul Friends. Looks pretty good!
Thanks, I thought so too!
Thanks for sharing I havent heard about most of these booke. adding them to my bucketlist now.

I’m looking forward to reading a Piece of Mind!
Me too! The concept is so intriguing.
