TOP TEN BOOKS OF 2025

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!

Forgive the rough cut! I am having no end of trouble on my end -- the least effect of which is, I cannot put a standard podcast out. But I did make a recording for you! Hopefully my technical problems will be worked out by next Tuesday.

Also, you'll note I didn't include 10 brand new books -- just 9. Forgive me!
