Most people who know me in real life know that I’m an avid lifelong reader. At any given time I’m reading a book, listening to a book on audible, and have a “to be read” pile a mile tall. In honor of turning 30 next week, I wanted to list out the “30 Books that Made Me”. The books that I’ve read that have become part of me. This is just a sampling of the books I’ve read, but some of these have stuck with me from the time I was a kid, others are beloved favorites I come back to every so often.
