What I Read in 2020

My ten-year mission to read a book a week (on average) continues! Unlike last year, 2020 was not a year to overachieve; I just squeaked by with 52 books, and am plenty satisfied with that. My average over four years is now 53 books / year, not leaving me a ton of wiggle room for 2021.

Here is everything I read this year, starting with the most recent. Keep scrolling to learn which ones I loved most
