Books I've Read: Q3 2024
Me in front of two promotional posters at the Festival America literary festival in Vincennes, France. September 28, 2024.
As seems to be my trend, I read fewer books in Q3 than I tend to do in other quarters of the year. I could hypothesize as to the whys and wherefores, but I have no real reason. Let the mystery stand!

Do remember that just because I didn’t bold a book doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy it. If you see one of your planned reads on my list and I haven’t bolded it, don’t let me put you off.
I’ve posted my reading lists for other quarters of 2024:
