That's a nice variety, Alias. Good luck with competing all of them. The RBG sounds appealing to me, too.

I finally finished one off my DL. I'm glad to report it was a winner.

Very well done. 5/5 rating.
Bobby Kennedy: A Raging Spirit---Chris Matthews

It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.
~~~ Robert F. Kennedy, South Africa, 1966

Glad to hear this, Alias. Congrats on your DL achievement!

It looks like I will end up reading 7 of the 12 books or categories that I planned.

That is very good for me. I'll move some of the unread to 2019.
