Hey Friends!
A few weeks ago, I asked you to give me your recommendations for your favorite books you read in 2018, and boy howdy did you all deliver. After getting all of your amazing recs, I thought it was only fair to share the final list back with you. Check them out below, and happy reading!
A couple things first…
- I’m not technically recommending these books. I haven’t even read half of them yet. But they are books that you recommended to me, and I trust y’all to have good taste. If a book you love didn’t make it onto the list, or a book you hate did, that’s okay. This isn’t some kind of “best of” list–it’s just the books you sent in when I asked for recs.
- I’ve grouped the books below into very rough categories, based on the 10 seconds I spent looking at each book’s page. My categories could be wrong! And since I put each book only in one category, I’m almost certainly missing some categorizations. That’s ok, though. These aren’t meant to be perfect–just a starting place for my brain when I think, “Hmm, I’m in the mood for some [X] right now.”
Cool? Cool. Now, without further ado, the Spencer Spears Reader-Recommended Reading List for 2019 (yikes, what a mouthful!):
General

Veterans Affairs series by A.E. Wasp |

FYI: I use affiliate links for books on this site, which means that I get a tiny bonus if you purchase anything using those links, but the price for you remains the same. Win/win, right?
Spencer,
Thanks for all your work. Love the upbeat nature of your communication, both in emails & your stories.
We FINALLY have a week or 10 days of above freezing temps here in Michigan, with 65 predicted for tomorrow (before returning to the 40s the day after). Definitely time to get the bike down from the garage ceiling & put away the damn snow shovel & gloves !!!
Thanks for the freebies & reading list.
I hope for you continued success & writing accomplishments — but mostly that no day goes by without your finding some joy, opportunity to laugh, and something to appreciate & marvel at (and i mean all those in each day, not just one of them).
Thanks again for using your readers as an outlet for your creative capabilities !! Much appreciated.
Tim
Thanks, Tim! Here’s hoping there’s lots of good reading and biking time in your near future, and less shoveling!
Spencer,
Thank you for putting together this list and links. I really appreciate the free stories from you…..
I’m in Iowa and its finally warming up…….and I daydream about being able to soon sit out on our patio and reading some of these.
J, reading on the patio sounds So. Nice. Crossing my fingers for spring soon for both of us!
Love your books. Great recommendations will check them out.
I am in East Texas and our weather here is weird to the extreme.
You wake in the morning it’s 30 by noon it’s 60 don’t know how to dress.
But you can keep your snow don’t want it or need it.
Texans can’t drive in snow.LOL take care and stay warm.
Lynn, I promise I won’t send you any snow if you’ll send me up some of that 60 degree weather! 😉 Happy reading!
