Top 20 Books Read for 2016
I should make two clarifications. First, this is not a list of books written in 2016. This will be obvious to most. Second, the title of this post is greatly misleading because I have excluded all books written by C. S. Lewis and all books about C. S. Lewis that I read this year. Just click on the links to see those posts. OK, I should also admit that my number one book for this year is connected with C. S. Lewis.
Also, there is one particular and unique book that I do not include in a list such as this, and that is because it belongs on a plane of its own--the Bible. If you read nothing else, read the Bible. Read the Bible before you read anything else. This year (as is my habit of some years now) I read through the Bible. I chose the English Standard Version. I try to select a different English translation to read through each year.
One other thing of note. The final count of books read this year is 143. This is the most I've read in a single year, and this list comes from those 143 books.
Without further ado, here is my list.
