Library, 2026
Books I have read this year, in the order I read them, with one-line notes closer to how I remember them than to formal reviews.
Crime and Punishment
In the middle of it, slowly.
Alice in Wonderland
Utterly absurd, in a good way.
The Death of Ivan Ilyich
Made me think, though I came away even less certain than before.
The Catcher in the Rye
Loved the writing. It was my second time reading it, and it felt sadder this time.
When Breath Becomes Air
Even sadder, but easily one of my top ten books ever.
Frankenstein
Way sadder than expected, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
A Million Little Pieces
Trying to put the controversy aside, I found it a human story.
