As I have done for the past 14 years, I am asking for a list of books you’ve most enjoyed reading in 2023.
There is no definition to the kind of book which you might add to this list. I’m most interested in what you truly enjoyed this past year (old or new books) with the thought that others might get some ideas for their reading in 2024.
Even if you think others may recommend a particular book that you liked, please include it on your list. Some of you like to know that more than one or two MillersTime readers have enjoyed a given title.
You may include book(s) you cited in the 2023 Mid-Year Review, and send as few as one title or up to five.
Please take the time to include a few sentences about the book and particularly what made this book so enjoyable for you. From what readers have said over the years, It is the comment(s) that are what’s most important about MillersTime Favorite Reads each year.\.
You have until December 20th to get your favorites to me in time for my posting of the results on Dec. 31/Jan.1. (Earlier submissions are appreciated as it takes a good bit of time to put this annual post together.)
Send me your list (Samesty84@gmail.com) with the title, author, and whether the book is fiction (F) or non-fiction (NF).
Thanks in advance.

THE COLLECTOR by Daniel Silva (fiction). The Gabriel Allen series keep getting better and better. Each one I read the new one, I can’t wait until the next one comes out. THE COLLECTOR is on the top of the list. Daniel Silva – please continue the series.

Loved the story and characters in The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store. We know these characters, both good and bad. James McBride’s early years may be reflected in this
engrossing novel.

Sorry. No submission this year. I have been enthralled with my completing my 60 year collection of U.S. postage stamps (it is magnificent!!!) AND with making heads/tails of my mother’s extensive collection of pictures (taken over 80 years) and the few books I did read should not be foist on anyone (regardless of what the reviewers might say)

Only read one book I really liked.
The Book of Charlie by David Von Drehle.
The Remarkable American Life of a 109 Year Old Man.
” The inspiring story of one man’s journey through a century of upheaval”.
When the author met him, he was 102 and was in his driveway washing his girlfriends car. He is now my hero. It is kind of a story of the history of this country.
