I managed to squeeze in a bit of reading this past year. I read or reread the following books in 2023:
- Buddhist Suttas for Recitation: A Companion for Walking the Buddha’s Path (Bhante Gunaratana)
- The Right Stuff (Tom Wolfe)
- Richard II (Shakespeare)
- The Birth of Loud (Ian Port)
- Food for the Heart: The Collected Teachings of Ajahn Chah (Ajahn Chah)
- Bourbon: A History of the American Spirit (Dane Huckelbridge)
- Come and See (Bhante Gunaratana)
- Impermanence in Plain English (Bhante Gunaratana and Julia Harris)
Great stuff! If fortunate enough to compile more of these annual reading lists, I’ll be listing several of these books again.
