Hitler's Greatest Defeat by Paul Adair
This refers to Operation Bagration, the Soviet Summer Offensive that began on June 22, 1944. We in the West focus primarily on DDay as the major military event of Summer '44, but it was Bagration that really did in the Wehrmacht, which saw 30 divisions destroyed in the matter of a few weeks. This book is a concise, quick read on the subject.

Suicide of the West by James Burnham
Conservative classic written in the early 60's that I finally got around to reading.

The Disappeared by CJ Box
Second to latest in the Joe Pickett series. Nothing special for the series, but then the series is pretty consistently good.

Before She Knew Him by Peter Swanson
My March selection for the Book of the Month Club and a decent if not exceptional thriller.

The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
Aaron got me a book-of-the-month subscription for Christmas, and this was my January selection. It's a decent psychological thriller. Not the type of book I would have normally selected for myself. I think it's good Aaron has got me reading things I normally wouldn't.
The Idol of Our Age by Daniel J. Mahoney
Nice book discussing the "religion of humanity" and its subversion of Christianity.
