By popular request and for your reference (as well as my own), I’ve created an alphabetical list of all of the books I’ve mentioned or commented on since the beginning of the year; i.e. January through May, with one title that will appear in another posting this month. List includes the genre and the date of the blog post in which it appeared.
It is possible to search my blog by the tags, “books” or “reading,” for example, and get the posts that have those tags, but this does not provide an organized list. And you can see all the posts that are categorized as Books or Reading, but that again just gives you the entire post. So here’s the first list of authors and titles. I’ll do this periodically throughout the year.
