A reading list from a longtime bookworm. A good book is one you can keep reading and that has substance. That’s the truth. I’ve been reading for over a decade, and I’ll subscribe to and follow a book every day if I like it and it suits my tastes. If it’s not my cup of tea, I won’t follow it at all. Every book on this list is one I’ve personally read and enjoyed enough to keep. The genres are varied and eclectic, but they’re all good, engrossing reads.
