Books which I read in 2017 - Almost complete list

in #life6 years ago

Here the is list of the books which I read in 2017, mostly books in Ukrainian, so I keep the images to Ukrainian books, recently I published on Steemit similar post in Ukrainian and got some interesting feedback (but not on Steemit, on facebook and other social media where I shared link). Still not so many of my friends are joining Steemit, but I hope this will change.

It would be interesting to hear your thought on these books, may be some of them you read and some are planning to read.
