Books “I cannot remember the books I’ve read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
As a son of a librarian, books hold a special meaning to me and the selection of books below are ones that have impacted how I view and interact with the world. I personally recommend each one. I’ve divided them into focus subcategories but, as with many things in life, each of these books could easily fill two or more categories.
As I continue to read, learn, and grow, I’ll update this page with new books that I believe can bring value to your life. I hope you enjoy!
