I took some time to review the books that I read in 2022. Here is a list of my favorite reads:.
- Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be – Stephen Pressfield
- This is a great book. If you still need to get it, do so now. I got a signed copy of his latest book, Govt Cheese, which is next on my reading list.
- Fairy Tale – Stephen King
- I love Stephen King’s books. This was riveting from beginning to end. It was a great story, a little whimsical at times, and he weaved the plots together with mastery. It is a large book, but well worth the investment. What’s next from Stephen King in 2023?
- In the Blood: A Thriller – Jack Carr
- Jack Carr produced another book that had me hooked from the beginning. I am, impressed that he has kept his attention to detail and developed creative plotlines five books into the series. I am looking forward to #6 later this year.
- The Confident Mind: A Battle-Tested Guide to Unshakeable Performance – Dr. Nate Zinnser
- If you want to become better, get this book. Focused and on point. I refer to this book often.
- Courage is Calling: Fortune Favors the Brave – Ryan Holiday
- I am interested in Stoic Philosophy. Ryan Holiday does an excellent job of relating it to the way we can live our lives.
Runner Up: Final Spin – Jocko Willink: Definitely a book to add to your shelf if you have not done so already.
Three books about becoming better and two works of fiction. A good balance. I read a lot and aim for at least a book a week, on average. What books did you read this year that I should add to my list?

Hopes for 2023: A new novel by Amor Towles.
He is my favorite author. If you still need to read his books, start right now. They are so well written. “A Gentleman in Moscow” is a great one, to begin with, but they are all great.
