*****
This list encompasses all books I finished reading in 2024, no matter when I happened to start them. It includes a few magazines, ones I’ve read from cover to cover, but not necessarily all of those. The list does not include anything I’ve read on the web. I have read a lot on the web, but it’s too hard to keep track of.
