Aurelius × Radix

What I have read

The books I have worked through and still hold, by the ground they cover.

The books I have read and still carry with me, grouped by what they cover.

If a book belongs on this list and has yet to reach it, send it to me. Recommendations are one of the few things I read to the end every time.

Send me a book — or straight to aureliusxradix@pm.me.

228 books, and a title only moves onto this page once I have finished it. New titles land here as they finish. If one belongs on it, send it to me.

228 books. One only appears here once I have finished it. New books appear here as I finish them. If one belongs on this list, send it to me.

Where this comes from

Behind this list sits a private system that holds what I read: every book worked through into notes, every claim carrying how well it is corroborated and whether anyone has tried to break it, and the whole thing cross-linked so a new book collides with what is already there. This page is the shallow end of it — the titles, and the notes as they get written.

Behind this list is a private system that holds everything I read. Every book gets worked through into notes. Every claim gets marked with how many separate sources back it and whether anyone has tried to knock it down. It is all cross-linked, so a new book runs into what is already in there and the disagreements surface. This page is the shallow end: the titles, and the notes as I write them.

Notes

What a book changed, written up after the fact. A note here means I read the whole thing and something in my work moved because of it.

I read slowly and I write the note only once the book has been used for something. That is why there are fewer notes than books, and why the notes are late.
