My 2016 Summer Reading List

My 2016 Summer Reading List

 Some of these books I will be re-reading for the third or fourth time (The End of College), others are newcomers to my library (More Money than God). A mix of fiction, non-fiction, photographs, strategies and Beyoncé (what?) - there's enough here to keep me well read and in the know far into the fall months. 

Enjoy!
