None were worse than The Tragedy of Arthur though remembering Baby does not make me pleased. 

There were some good ones this year. The discovery of Agatha Christie was a joy and I read 12 of her books and have plans to read more. Overall, Tell the Wolves I'm Home was my favorite, but The Dutch House, Normal People, and The Great Believers were all tales well told. I also fondly recall The Lager Queen of Minnesota as I review this list. That's the most books I've read since 2015, though I think Christie helped on that front too.
