Pick a Hill and Then Carve Out Your Niche

This is a reference list of the books I've read (physical and eBooks) and listened to, which over time may wind up being linked to reflections or quotes in this commonplace book. 

The entry details are based on the Modern Language Association's 2021 standard for citation (MLA), and will be tidied up over time to adhere to the standard for parenthetical and narrative styles. 

User-controlled groupings and filters will also be added to over time, as will new books I read.
