Books I’ve Read: Q2 2019
When you look and discover you still have almost half an hour of lunchtime left and can keep reading. Lausanne, Switzerland. May 24, 2019.
A list of books I chewed through in the second quarter of 2019, in rough chronological order:
A Generation of Sociopaths: How the Baby Boomers Betrayed America, by Bruce Cannon Gibney
Valiant Gentlemen, by Sabina Murray
Dying: A Memoir, by Cory Taylor
A Little Life, by Hanya Yanagihara
Exit West, by Mohsin Hamid
Autumn, by Ali Smith
The Idiot, by Elif Batuman
The Underground Railroad, by Colson Whitehead
Behold the Dreamers, by Imbolo Mbue
Mischling, by Affinity Konar
The Mirror Thief, by Martin Seay
Before the Fall, by Noah Hawley
The Mortifications, by Derek Palacio
Here I Am, by Jonathan Safran Foer
The Fuzzy and the Techie, by Scott Hartley
Grace, by Natashia Deón
War and Turpentine, by Stefan Hertmans
The books I bolded, I recommend most highly—although I found many of the others quite tasty as well.
To see what I read in other 2019 quarters, read my lists for Q1 2019, in Q3 2019, and in Q4 2019.
