It's a tiny bit late, but here is my annual list of books I have read. For no reason other than I've been writing my OWN books, the list is a little shorter this year. I could claim the list is briefer because I have one or two monster-long books, but that wouldn't work. I typically have one or two monster-long books. Here goes:
1. The Greatest Game Ever Pitched: Juan Marichal, Warren Spahn, and the Pitching Duel of the Century -- Jim Kaplan
2. Wait Till Next Year -- Doris Kearns Goodwin
3. The Odds: A Love Story -- Stewart O'Nan
4. The Great Leader -- Jim Harrison
5. Just Kids -- Patti Smith
6. The Hunger Games -- Suzanne Collins
7. Cutting for Stone -- Abraham Verghese
8. Ignorance: How It Drives Science -- Stuart Firestein
9. A Pirate for Life -- Steve Blass
10. Canada -- Richard Ford
11. The Juju Rules, or How to Win Ballgames from Your Couch -- Hart Seely
12. You & Me -- Padgett Powell
13. The Cow in the Parking Lot: A Zen Approach to Overcoming Anger -- Leonard Scheff and Susan Edmiston
