Disclaimer / Content Warning: The following summaries are colored by my interpretations. They are not intended to act as a replacement for the reading of these books, but simply as a tool to aid one in their studies. Likewise, the inclusion of a book is not necessarily an endorsement of these works or their author(s). While we will attempt to keep the reviews tasteful, please note that some of the books about relationships speak openly about the topic of sex.
Contents
Books are organized alphabetically by author's last name, then alphabetically by title. There is no particular reason why the books are separated into the following categories other than the fact that these topics are important to me. Click on a link to jump to that section, or use the "Find" function of your browser to search the list. Each book is only listed once, although some books could be placed within multiple categories.
Each page has a link to a (legal) online copy wherever possible. Unfortunately, the Internet Archive court case destroyed many of these links, but you still might be able to find them through similar services provided by your local library (e.g.: Hoopla Digital). Not every page has content yet. We are systematically working through them. For now, green checkmarks will designate pages that have something. More will be added as time allows.
