About the Barack Obama's Favorite Books
Obama shared his first list, summer reading, in 2015; his first posted year-end list came in 2017. Year-end lists are category Favorite Books and summer lists Summer Reading. There is no 2016 year-end, 2017 summer, or 2020 summer list. Sources are Obama posts (Facebook, Medium, obama.org) where they load, otherwise news pages quoting the full list. A year-end list that repeats summer picks keeps them, so each list is complete as posted. Books only.
