Eleven months in and I'm happy to report that I've read 40 books. My goal in January was 30.
Here are the four books I read this months.
The Divine Conspiracy, by Dallas Willard
I
first read this book fifteen years ago. It's probably shaped me as much
as any other book has, and I decided that I wanted to go back through
it. It's not a quick read at all, but taking your time through a book like
this is highly recommended.
Retire Early with Real Estate, by Chad Carson
A few months ago I heard a BiggerPockets podcast with Chard Carson and really liked what I heard. Carson is younger than me and is financially independent, which means he has enough money coming in each month to cover his bills. The bulk of this is from real estate. He still works, but he's able to do the things he's passionate about. The thing I loved most about this book is the profiles he includes in each chapter of real estate investors who have done similar things to him.
The Mountain Between Us, by Charles Martin
I checked this out from the library and read it in a day and a half. It was that good. I hope to see the movie sometime soon.
Year One, by Nora Roberts
It's a bit of the Hunger Games meets Harry Potter, though not as good as either and with a few more adult themes. Still, a good read, and I'm about to start the sequel.
