## Categories
- [Reading Recaps](https://peterknox.com/category/recaps/): My annual reading recaps, going back years. If you want to know what I read and what I thought about it, this is the archive. "2025 Reading Recap" is the latest. Another year, another list, and 2025's is really special. I always look forward to putting this one together. "2024 Reading Recap" covers another year and another reading goal checked off. I am honest about what I loved and what fell flat.
- [General](https://peterknox.com/category/general/): Everything that does not fit into a specific category. Reading lists, gift guides, and whatever else I feel like writing about. "2025 Reading Recap" is my annual tradition. Another year in the books, and 2025's list is really special. I look forward to writing this one every December. "Books to Gift Last Minute" is for the gift-givers who are coming down to the deadline every second half of December. I have been there, so I put together a list that actually helps.
- [Best Posts](https://peterknox.com/category/best-posts/): The posts that resonated most with readers. If you are new here and want a place to start, this is it. "My Favorite Reading Recommendations" is my TOP NINE list where I recommend my top fiction, nonfiction, and honorable mentions going back to 2014. I update it every year in my reading recaps, and it has become one of my most-visited pages.
