MJ James (bookrecluse) I am late starting my discussion this year. However not late reading. Here are the first 20. I will update the next 20 soon.

1. A Wrinkle in Time - a childhood favorite
2. The Invisible Man - Not one of Wells' best books
3. The Ensign - January 2015
4. Star Trek Countdown #1 - A Star Trek Graphic novel!
5. Zendoodle Basics: Amazing Zendoodle Patterns Using Pencil Drawings for Absolute Beginners - seriously do not bother
6. Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Howard W. Hunter - Another great book in an amazing series.
7. Who's in Charge? Free Will and the Science of the Brain Definitely made me think.
8. The Ensign - January 2016
9. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea - Not as great as I was expecting. I can't believe it has taken me this long to actually read this book.
10.Mockingjay - Yes it is popular Genre fiction - but it is a good book just right for the times.
11.SPACE SHUTTLE COLORING BOOK - Not impressed.
12. Zendoodle Coloring: Wonderful Beauty: 70 Gorgeous Woman and Mandala Designs For Instant Relaxation to Color and Exhibit OK
13. The Theory of Relativity and Other Essays I admit this one took me a while to get through. Interesting, even though I didn't understand a fair bit of it.
14. Make the SHIFT: The Proven Five-Step Plan to Success for Corporate Teams I am surprised how much I enjoyed this book. It had a lot more substance then I suspected.
15. Gulliver's Travels Another book that should have been read long ago. Interesting read.
16. The Rise of Superman: Decoding the Science of Ultimate Human Performance The concepts in this book have probably stayed with me more than any other I have read this year. Not the most remarkable book, but it has very interesting ideas.
17. Pride and Prejudice They were watching the movie at work - I had to read the book. What is surprising is that I actually enjoyed it.
18. The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ The Best Book Ever
19. Trail of Broken Wings Very interesting book. Totally worth five stars. This one has also stayed with me.
20. Brilliance Marcus Sakey is an amazing new Sci Fi author. If you have not checked him out do!!
