"Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary." ~ Jim Rohn
'Tis once again the season we nerd out and reflect on our reading list of the past year 🤘🏼
2020 — in all its chaotic glory — saw us read a total of 25 books, which, encouragingly, is up 25% on our number from 2019.
Perhaps due to the year that was, six of the 25 were in the # spirituality category (no doubt for that much needed surrender) while another six fell into the # finance category (no doubt for that much needed security).
For ease of perusal, here's the full list ordered alphabetically (by author's first name) and tagged by category.
