I posted a video of my reading list on Instagram and a few folks asked to see it, so I'm sharing it here as well. This isn't a reading challenge. I don't have a set time in which I plan to read these. This list is my sword and my shield and it is ever-evolving. Apologies in advance for any typos. I am sharing as-is.
