The BBLL: @teddydee's Greatest Hits
A spinoff of The Big Bad Luddite List. Whereas the original list is huge and sprawling and includes many books I have not yet read, as well as some that weren't my personal favorite, this Greatest Hits version is condensed and more tightly curated. All the titles on this list are books I personally feel are worth recommending. Check the comments for potential caveats or additional contextual information about certain titles.
