2016 Books I Read

My annual list of books read, mostly kept by me because I’m curious of the trends across time (see books label). I honestly think I missed some books this year. Maybe that's true, or maybe I had a higher estimation of how much I typically read.
In my defense, the Old Testament is a hefty read. A lovely one, challenging to the mind and heart, but not a small feat in itself.
