2019: Reading off "The Shelf" and Stephen King

For the past few years I've had a shelf of books I've been meaning to get to; ones that I want to read just "not right now." I decided this year was the year I would tackle The Shelf.  I did pretty well, finishing a few while progressing on others (ie Ron Chernow's Grant) until late June when Stephen King, whose books have been on a mental version of The Shelf, took over the list. Some other books have snuck in under the radar here and there and there's been a few more added to The Shelf for later. Here's what I've read this year:

Carry On, Warrior* by Glennon Doyle Melton
Night* by Elie Weisel
