I love compiling a list of what I’ve read so I can remember and share with y’all. So here we go … the 33 books I’ve read so far this year. It’s no surprise I’ve read significantly more fiction than non-fiction, given the loud, loud world and my need to escape into stories that always end up making me think anyway. Specifically, I’ve read 21 fiction, 6 memoirs, and 6 other non-fiction books so far this year. I also linked some other family books I’ve reviewed on the blog so far this year.
The links to my social media reviews are new this year, so I hope you like being able to read more about what I think about each book. If you’re new around here, an updated post like this will be published at the end of 2020.

Of course, I want to hear about what books from this list you’ve loved, what I need to read in the coming months, and whatever else you want to tell me about books. Pull up a chair on my virtual porch, and let’s talk books.
In the meantime, I also keep a list of all kinds of recommended reads (divided into categories) on Amazon, if you’re looking for even more suggestions. I also keep an updated list and post some reviews at Goodreads, if you want to follow along there.
