2020 Book-List

In the last 4 years, I read 200 books. I receive a lot of questions regarding the books I pick and what I think of them. 2020 was the year I committed to writing a post about every book I read. If you’re interested, you can read my thoughts on the books listed below. Keep in mind those are not book-reviews or summaries. But the key takeaways and reflections. I hope you find them useful.
