Best Books of 2025
Published:
Continuing the tradition from last year, here is the round-up of the 76 books I read in 2025 (one more than last year, just), what kinds of books they were, how I read them, and brief reviews of some of my favourites. The goal for next year: read my height (and read more women. <20% is quite poor).
