Dan ArelAs an avid reader, I wanted to add my reading list and reviews below. You will not likely see books rated under 3 stars as if I am not enjoying a book, I move on pretty quickly. I am often reading a few books at once and even have an audiobook in the mix.
I have added my current 2026 reading list and part of my 2025. I will continue to add more below, though I have not tracked many in recent years.
