The 2019 books

Inspired by the Scholarly Kitchen Chefs, here are some books I read and found especially valuable this year:

Professional Development

Trust / Gert Tinggaard Svendsen

Peopleware / Timothy Lister and Tom DeMarco

The Formula / Albert Barabasi

Memoir

Educated / Tara Westover

Fiction

Eileen / Otessa Moshfegh

Parenting

The Conscious Parent’s Guide to Childhood Anxiety / Sheriana Boyle

How to raise kind kids / Thomas Lickona

Just tell me what to say / Betsy Brown Braun

Children’s :)

As I read dozens of bedtime stories to the kids each week, I suppose while I’m here I can share a few highlights I’ve encountered in this category.

The “What do you do with a..” series / Kobi Yamada

The “I am” series / Susan Verde

Julian is a Mermaid / Jessica Love

Compiling this list was useful in helping me to identify the need to mix in some light reads, buoyant poetry or capricious fiction, even. Onward!
