In September of 2008 I decided to try reading one book a week for one whole year. I wasn’t as successful as I wanted to be, but I did manage to read quite a few great books.
I’ve decided to call off the official experiment, but keep reading. This page is the place where I’ll note some of the books that I’ve read. In most cases, I include one or two blog entries based on these books, so you can find out more by searching my blog. Hopefully, you’ll find something that interests you.
