Bibliography: Second Half of 2018

A bibliography similar to the previous one. This one covers July-December 2018. Again, it's not necessarily complete and contains only whole books, not articles or primarily reference works. I'm also trying to only include books that are newish - i.e., not on the previous couple lists. (Children's books also generally not included!)
