A couple days ago I published an article entitled The Best Non-Fiction Books of 2023. If you'd like to check that out you can do so here. But I believe reading fiction is just as important as reading non-fiction. And it's awesome! I get just as inspired reading a good story as learning something new. Check out the list below!
By now all the Christmas presents have been opened and hopefully you've had some good R n' R with family and friends. Did you get any books?

There are books on learning better, some history, science, psychology, and memoirs. There's sure to be something to whet your appetite for learning and knowing more about the big wide world we're living in.

Like many of you, I see the end of the year as a chance to look back and see what went right, what slipped through my grasp, and what I can improve as I go into the new year. Of course, my brain is already exploding with ideas of goals to strive for in 2020, but I know I have a better chance of success if I pause to take note of an obstacle here, a tweak there, and formulate my plans with this important context in mind.
