I will try to come back to sort this list of books into better categories and maybe write a short summary, but for now, you click over to Amazon for a description of the books. I consumed over 200+ books in 2024 with one intentional list of books for my book club, books from the Governerd book club, and super random books I got as recommendations from everyone everywhere. I don’t recommend all the books I read. There are some books that are about sensitive topics. It’s a whole range of books: middle grade books, graphic novels, memoirs, history, historical fiction, and more. Feel free to also message me about these books or other books or join my book club.

Here are some books that I enjoyed, not all for the same reason. Some were hard reads, so prepare yourself for that. Others were very thought-provoking, and makes you wonder if there’s another way to do things. I resonated with quite a few books. And there were still other books that were far off from the reality and experiences I faced. But overall, I believe that we can learn something from every book we read, so read on and let me know what lessons you take from the books on this list or any books that you have read, are reading, or will read.
