What are you reading in 2020?

Posted 4/9/2020

What are you reading in 2020?

I have always been a voracious reader - well, except for the 8 months or so after my MBA when I struggled to scan the headlines or read a news story. I find I go through phases of reading – for a period it is non-fiction (mostly business or leadership books), followed by a few weeks of fiction (all kinds of fiction including some young adult novels). I can also quickly get invested in a series or an author and just devour each book.

Below is a list of some of the books I have read in 2020:

  1. The Quality of Light by Richard Wagamese (you absolutely must read Ragged Company as well)
  2. The Spawning Grounds by Gail Anderson-Dargatz (I loved A Recipe for Bees, A Rhinestone Button and The Cure for Death by Lightening)
  3. Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion by Gregory Boyle (please google him and listen to his TedTalk and some of the other presentations he has given)
  4. No Return Address by Gail Anderson-Dargatz
  5. The Truth According to Us by Annie Barrows
  6. Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up by Jerry Colonna
  7. The Guernsey Literary Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
  8. The Devil you Know by Elisabeth de Mariaffi
  9. House Rules by Jodi Picoult (my sister left this one at my house after she visited in the fall)
  10. Then She was Gone by Lisa Jewell
  11. Conversations on Dying by Phil Dwyer
  12. Everything Happens for a Reason by Kate Bowler
  13. The Giver Trilogy by Lois Lowry
  14. Wild: from lost to found on the Pacific Coast Trail by Cheryl Strayed
