We’ve turned the calendar page from 2019 to 2020. I thought I’d take a quick break from Bowen Family Systems Theory, to share my year in books. 2019 was another year of eclectic reading choices. As I look at my list, I notice the absence of mysteries, science fiction, and poetry. Suggestions welcome. Here’s to another great year of reading in 2020!
