\"\"<\/a>Way back in December of\u00a02011<\/a> (and again every other December since), we’ve taken a look at the authors I have read the most, dating back to high school. This year, I\u2019ve far surpassed my previous record for books read in a year, so I thought it would be nice to take a deeper dive into all of those books I\u2019ve read through August of this year. Since our last check-in, I\u2019ve read an additional 114 books, so there should be some movement over the past two years.\u00a0 Without further ado, it\u2019s time to take another look and see if my \u201cfavorite\u201d authors have changed much over the years.\u00a0 Today, we wrap things up with a look back at the 109 authors I’ve read more than once.<\/p>\n
