This is a traditional thread for you to use to list the most outstanding books you read during the year of 2018. They don't have to be books that were published in 2018, just whatever books you've read in 2018 that strike you as particularly noteworthy - the kind of book that will stick in your mind for a long time to come.

Have a piece of cake while you peruse.
