I started reading this in March. I read some of it, read something else, come back to it, something else, back at it.

It’s good, I enjoy it…but I also see why you’d have an abridged version.

At this rate it’ll be next year before I finish.

Last year I set myself a goal to read 52 books, an aggressive aspiration that required ultimately an unsustainable pace. I didn’t make it. I didn’t come close. At the close of 2023 my tally came to.....18. In my defense I did read a lot of New Yorkers.

Books Read in 2023:

- 1 Fever Pitch by Nick Hornby (Maybe you have my copy, currently MIA?)
- 2 The City and the City by China Melville
- 3 Legacy by James Kerr
- 4 Sacrifice by Michelle Black
- 5 Mans Search For Meaning by Victor Frankl
- 6 Ballpark by Paul Goldberger
- 7 The Night Manager, by John Le Carré
- 8 Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
- 9 Matterhorn by Karl Marlantes
- 10 Happy-Go-Lucky by David Sedaris
- 11 A Small Town in Germany by John le Carré
- 12 In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larsen
- 13 Angela’s Ashes by Frank McCourt
- 14 A Private Spy: The letters of John le Carre edited by Tim Cornwell
- 15 Gavin at War: The World War II Diary of LTG James M. Gavin edited by Lewis Sorley
- 16 The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead
- 17 The Boys From Biloxi by John Grisham
- 18 Naive and Sentimental Lover by John Le Carré

This year I’ve set myself a goal of 24 books, which feels more attainable.

What are your reading goals for 2024?

A problem that I have is that when I see a copy of a book for sale from one of my favorite authors I have to buy it, even if I already own a copy (or multiple copies).
