It's funny to see this posted because I'm working on writing up my list right now to put up tomorrow. I've done this each December for a few years now. Here's my list from 2022: https://bcmullins.github.io/interesting-books-2022/ https://bcmullins.github.io/interesting-books-2022/ Here's a gloss on my list for this year: "Slouching Towards Utopia" by J. Bradford DeLong (2022). A narrative economic history of the 20th century that focuses on the interaction between policy and economic thought. "Lost Continents" by L. Sprague de Camp (1954). Looks at Atlantis and other lost continents as rhetorical devices in ancient history and philosophy, 20th century pseudoscience/pseudohistory, and science fiction. "The Hound of the Baskervilles" by Arthur Conan Doyle (1902). My favorite Sherlock Holmes tale yet. Really embraces the themes of gothic literature. "The Rise of Universities" by Charles Homer Haskins (1923). Three short lectures on the history of universities. Quite funny! This was part of a project where I looked back at research from 1923: https://bcmullins.github.io/research-from-1923/ https://bcmullins.github.io/research-from-1923/. "The Book of Yokai" Michael Dylan Foster (2015). Explores an interesting aspect of Japanese folklore which has found its way into all sorts of popular media.
