This year was *wild* for me professionally. I started the year cautiously optimistic… and ended it by quitting my job and moving on in open source.

This year I finally read all the books I planned to—and then some! At the end of the year, I finished 31 works of nonfiction and 12 this year. I write “finished”, rather than “read”, in the name of pedantic accuracy. Most of the books on [this year’s list](https://v5.chriskrycho.com/library/reading-list/#2023) were books I read start to finish this year, but not all. A fair number of those were books I had started before this year—in two cases as far back as 2020!—and only got across the finish line in 2023. I was glad to get them across the finish line, though! For a few weeks in November and December, I was texting one of my friends an updated count every few days of how many books I was “actively” reading still. The fact that my count is now 8 is a triumph: at various points in the year it was close to 20!

This entry in my 2023 in review is a smörgåsbord, covering everything I have *not* covered in the other parts of the series: music, photography, health and fitness, and church.
