Bookshelf: April – June 2023
Half the year is gone! But I’ve read some great (and some not so great) books. Check out this quarter's list. Don't worry; the list is longer than the picture shows.

Looking for something to read this summer? These were my book choices – and some commentary – from the last quarter. Some are new releases; others not so new. (You can find 1st quarter book summaries here.)
Not Again. Still.
