You may be looking at the title and scratching your head. What is a mashed potato book? Well, according to one of my favorite podcasts Books UnBound, a mashed potato book is something that has been on your to be read shelf for a while.
After listening to this, I decided to compile a list of books that I have in my collection that have that classification for a number of different reasons. And, this year, I’ve decided to tackle these books. I’m going to try to tackle one book per month this year. Well, at least one per month as it would take more than that to get through all of these.
