Thank you for the list of books and your commentary of each! My wife groaned when I read her the title of this post as I do have a skyscraper of books by my bed and elsewhere in the house! Looking forward to your new book.

I love these lists - so many ideas. I popped into the library this morning and Whistler was on the Lucky Day shelf so I grabbed it up along with 3 others for me and something funny for my sweet granddaughter for bedtime reading tomorrow 😊

Your opinion is valuable, but TMI - too much information. If they don't live up to your recommendation, would it be okay not to finish them?

Never any pressure. It’s always okay not to finish a book. LIFE IS SHORT.

Thankyou Chris. Thankyou for the recommendations. I'm reading The Things We Never Say. Elizabeth Strout. Read Kin Lake Effect (I'm from Rochester New York. Know all the places in the book). Read Caller Unknown yes a great read. Looking forward to Jenny Jackson and The Amateur. I have Ann Patchetts The Whistler. Great recommendations.

Great list! I’m loving Alan Opts Out, and I can see how it would be even more fun for someone with an advertising background.
