It is interesting to me that I read. Up until I was a junior in high school I never read books. Now I read all the time. Below is a collected list of books I have read with links to blog posts about that material. I feel it is important to always be reading. You my notice that there is not a lot of fiction below, especially recently. I have nothing against fiction books (my favorite books are fiction) however I feel like it is important to expand my mind. While I am in the middle of my life and work eats up so much time I feel reading time is best spent in more non-fiction. I suspect that as life settles down I will likely move to a less non-fiction slant. We'll see. Feel free to suggest new books to read (or if you would like to send me new books to review feel free).
