While my non-fiction reading tastes are relatively eclectic, they generally reflect my current attitude and interests at this present time. As I get older, I tend to read books that make me more reflective and introspective. My list below contains books on psychology, history, business, philosophy, and sports. They informed, entertained, and made me think.
The first two books reflect my never-ending pursuit of self-improvement. The older I get, the better I want to think and improve my judgment.
I included the Julian Barnes book because it was so well written and reached within my heart and soul. The author is not much older than me but he describes his life after the death of his beloved wife.
Regrettably it seems, the older I get, the harder I find it to read what I consider a five-star book. I am always looking for the book with new ideas, perspectives and information. My breadth of interests and topics has narrowed also.
