Some Books

An internet friend asked the other day:

It appears I have finally rebooted my reading hobby, after years of trying. Feels good.

What’s something great you’ve read?

Here’s some of my favorites (in no particular order).

The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
Wonderful, quick, fantasy novel.

Revolutionary Road by Richard Yates
A gut-wrenching family drama.

Blind Descent: The Quest to Discover the Deepest Place on Earth by James M. Tabor
I’ve never been hooked so hard by a non-fiction book.

Hell Yeah or No by Derek Sivers
Modern advice and wisdom.

Mediation for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman
Forced me to rethink parts of my life.

Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank
My dad was an English teacher, and this was a favorite of his – and now mine.

Midnight on Beacon Street by Emily Ruth Verona
Horror joy ride.

The Chain by Adrian McKinty
Hold on to your butt horror.

The Design of Everyday Things by Donald A. Norman
A great book for software developers that isn’t about software.
