A list of books I devoured in the first quarter of 2019, in rough chronological order:

1. High Dive, by Jonathan Lee

2. Siddhartha, by Hermann Hesse

3. A Horse Walks into a Bar, by David Grossman

4. Mister Monkey, by Francine Prose

5. All That Man Is, by David Szalay

6. A Gambler's Anatomy, by Jonathan Lethem

7. Ill Will, by Dan Chaon

8. Sing, Unburied, Sing, by Jesmyn Ward

9. Stay with Me, by Ayobami Adebayo

10. Being Wrong, by Kathryn Schulz

11. Commonwealth, by Ann Patchett

12. Don't Let My Baby Do Rodeo, by Boris Fishman

13. A Kind of Freedom, by Margaret Wilkerson Sexton

The books I bolded, I recommend most highly—although I found delicious many of the others as well.
