Looking back at 2023 - Favorite books

One of my goals for the year was to read or listen to more books. Books are like mentors and these were my favorites. Each one had three or more takeaways I could apply to my life. I have posted about some separately and will post about others in the coming year. 

What books or content did you enjoy most this year?
