Books Read 2021


I am in the habit of publishing the list of books I read every year. Due to world events, I forgot the last couple years. Here we are now…

NK Jemisin’s The Fifth Season and MJ Lyons’ Queer Werewolves Destroy Capitalism were the most memorable pieces of fiction; both felt very human. Eric Tyson’s Investing for Dummies was the most useful non-fiction book for me, filling massive gaps in my knowledge for how money works as an individual.
