2. A book recommended by someone with great taste
3. A book in translation
Tale of Genji?
4. A book nominated for an award in 2018
5. A book of poetry, a play, or an essay collection
Essays by E.B. White? Saw thus on someone else's list, and I happen to have it. The topics look interesting.

The Last Little Prince -- 1/7/18
8. A book by a favorite author

Catcher in the Rye -- haven't read since high school, would like to re-read it from my older perspective.
11. A memoir, biography, or book of creative nonfiction
Just Kids, by Patti Smith -- 1/6/18
12. A book by an author of a different race, ethnicity, or religion than your own
