Since this blog began over a decade ago, the number of reviews I write has fallen each year. The reason makes no sense: reviews can be difficult and time-consuming to write. Wait. That makes perfect sense.
So here, then, are 10 books I loved but didn’t review in 2018. Check them out if you get a chance.
