Epic List: Every Book We've Read in Bookclub

This list of all the books we have read in the almost 10 years we've been a bookclub was put together with the help of Goodreads and my very own brain. I sure hope this is really all of them. I remembered to put one book that I straight up did not read, but it's possible there was more than one in 10 years. This was already too big of a list to include authors, and inclusion on this list does not necessarily equal a recommendation, but if you have questions about either of those things feel free to ask!

Interesting to see the overlap (and divergence)that this list has with ours. And it made me remember a few that I really wanted our group to read. Thanks!

Shannon said...
