💡 List Of Books I Read Last Year (+ Tips) 💡
I read 42 #books last year. The most I’ve ever read in a year.
A lot of these were large (many 500+ pages) and all were non-fiction.
I achieved this by etching out time for reading.
Instead of TV time or video games, etc. I had 1-3 hours a night after wife and kid were in bed. Wife’s a 9pm in bed kinda gal and we put our little one to bed about 6:30pm.
For the most part, I got physical books, even though I have a well-used Kindle. I like the feel of physical and better for night time reading 👌
What follows is a list of the books I read last year, in roughly the order I actually read them.
