In compiling this list I looked through my CB archives and pulled out all the book titles I have specifically mentioned in my posts that have come out in the last few years. I have included some other books I discovered that had come out around the same time, but had missed that first time around when looking for new books to mention. I may have skipped some books I brought up before in some posts due to human error. Some book titles were buried in some posts so I couldn’t find them unless I did a thorough search, but I also have a life and can’t spend my time looking for book titles. Plus some of those titles are older and I’m mostly (but not exclusively) focusing on more recent titles. Also due to some computer error I may have deleted some titles I had originally added. I blame the stinking computer.

I don’t plan on reading all the books on this list. That would be rather improbable due to lack of time to read it all, an attention span to actually read, and a mind to take it all in. Plus if I read how could I discover more books to not read? Knowing they exist is pleasure enough. I wouldn’t be able to put this book list together for you who are more prone to actually reading something on this list if I actually took time to read books on the list. Making book and/or movie lists is something of a hobby of mine. It’s also a result of being a little obsessive compulsive and intellectually glutinous when it comes to consuming information but having it hampered and hindered by ADHD and indecisiveness when it comes to picking a book to actually read from beginning to end. My lack of being able to start and finish a book has caused me to buy books I never read or borrow books from the library I return without reading. Can you relate?

I also added some titles that are forthcoming books I think I might want to know about. I might actually read something at some point. I am rediscovering audio books as I have a 20 minute commute to work now and not 5. I’m content with reading snippets of things and synopsis and sharing quotes. I know if I stop browsing long enough I could write more blog posts about specific books and not just hand out quotes in my posts.

My advise to myself and to others is to actually read this book.

There is more than one way not to read, the most radical of which is not to open a book at all. For any given reader, however dedicated he might be, such total abstention necessarily holds true for virtually everything that has been published, and thus in fact this constitutes our primary way of relating to books. We must not forget that even a prodigious reader never has access to more than an infinitesimal fraction of the books that exist.”― Pierre Bayard, How to Talk About Books You Haven’t Read (2010)

From the Introduction by Francine Prose. Pierre Bayard puts his readers—this reader—in a uniquely paradoxical position. Having just read his witty How to Talk About Books You Haven’t Read, I have now discovered that there was no reason for me to have read it in the first place. But without having read it, how would I have known that I could just as well have skimmed it, or perhaps heard about it somewhere, or possibly formed a sense of the book based entirely on what other readers have said about it, on the sort of received opinions about a work that float around in the culture? In addition, not having read the book shouldn’t—or so Pierre Bayard has assured me—prevent me from talking confidently and learnedly about it, or even from writing these brief, introductory words of appreciation. But how would I have known that without Bayard’s sage advice, which I could only have found in his wise and original volume?

And now here is the list broken down into 3 main categories.

1. Catholic Books
2. Fiction Books
3. Non-Fiction Books

This post is subject to additions, corrections and updates. It also needs some fine tuning but I can’t spend all my time perfecting a book list. So take it as it is and how it might be later on.
