May was a great month. As the sun shone bright, it led to more walking every day. With more walking and mowing and other chores, it was more reading. So, I got about 70+ hours of reading (listening) done and got through several key books on my reading stack.

I plan to write over this month about each of them, one at a time. I will critically examine the patterns I took away from them as well as how it plays into what I do with this learning.

Here is the list…
