My four favorite books of 2024 were surprisingly all non-fiction. Typically I favor fiction over non-fiction, reading more and finishing more fiction books than non in a given year. While this still held true for my overall 2024 reading year, my favorites were 3 memoirs and a biography.
As I contemplated this, it wasn’t surprising. These four books are well-crafted tales about over-coming hardship and trials with a strong redemptive flavor. Just what I love to read!
What is a favorite book of yours? I love collecting good books to read in all
kinds of genres. It’s the well-crafted story — fiction or non that I’m after. It can be a recent favorite or beloved favorite of all times. Tell me what you got!
