Since I listed that book as #14 of 2020 without posting the rest here.... here is the rest:

#1: "The Totally Useless History of the World" by Ian Crofton - Good for some chuckles and very light reading

#2: "Quest for the Past: Great Discoveries in Archaeology" by Brian M. Fagan - Cool but old book, probably so many updates to be made

#3: "Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations" by David R. Montgomery - Radical

#4: "We Are The Weather: Saving The Planet Begins At Breakfast" by Jonathan Safran Foer - Some good stuff

#5: "La Vuelta al Mundo en Ochenta Dias" or "Around the World in Eighty Days" by Jules Verne (Edition with Spanish on one side of the page, English on the other) - Decent story, but again feeling of accomplishment at reading Spanish. No Kung-Fu present like in the Disney adaptation with Jackie Chan.

#6: "The Mosquito: A Human History of our Deadliest Predator" by Timothy C. Winegard - Appropriate reading for the beginning of a pandemic

#7: "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" by Agatha Christie - The first Hercule Poirot story, these are always fun

#8: "Noise: A Human History of Sound and Listening" by David Hendy - PrettyCool but too short, wanted more

#9: "Curtain: Poirot's Last Case" by Agatha Christie - The last Hercule Poirot story

#10: "The Art of Loving" by Erich Fromm - Meh

#11: "21 Lessons for the 21st Century" by Yuval Noah Harari - PrettyCool.... like this guy's books a lot

#12: "Kilo: Inside the Deadliest Cocaine Cartels - From the Jungles to the Streets" by Toby Muse - Pretty disheartening and sad. Would recommend.

#13: "The Lucky Ones" by Julianne Pachico - Was decent enough
