This is a list of books I've read, most recent first. While the list is accurate for more recent years, I've been able to collate a partial list of entries going back to about 2012.

Recommended titles are in bold. I've tagged books by several criteriaβ€”feel free to click a tag to narrow down my bookshelf.
