Ten Years of Books

"Read more than you write" is one of the primary tenants of good writing.  Well, here we are.  For the past 10 years, I've kept a list of every book I've finished.  Perhaps I missed a book or two; and there is one book that I left off the list entirely, because I didn't want to honor it even that far.  Many books, I reread more than once -- and some, I read nearly every year.  Beginning in 2010, I marked the books I'd never before read with an asterisks.  The greatest compliment I can give a book is to reread it, so if you want recommendations, look to the unstarred books of recent years.

Here, then, is my list:
