Complete Desiderata

When people make book recommendations to me, I often hedge and tell them I don’t need any more books to read. I hope the list below will explain why I don’t welcome new suggestions. It’s my desiderata, in other words, all the books I wish to read. There’s too many, and it’s overwhelming

While I don’t particularly need new suggestions, I do take secondary and tertiary recommendations for what to read that’s already on my list. If you feel like a book I’ve jotted down needs to be read sooner rather than later, feel free to let me know. I also take recommendations for things to remove from the list. Know me well enough to know I won’t enjoy something? Go ahead and say so!
