What’s on Your Reading List?

There are a lot of things I can fill my head with, and very few amount to more than nothing.  Instead, I came up with the reading list below.  I’ve broken down my reading list into categories that I’m interested in.  I’ve categorized them and ordered them based on the value I got from them.

If you are interested in making a reading list, here’s how I came up with mine.  I know a few authors I really like, and I know a few categories of books I am interested in.  So I trolled Amazon Books for a couple of hours looking for books with high, and many, ratings.  I also looked at what “other customers looked at…” at the bottom of the amazon book page I was interested in, to see what others were reading.  And that’s how I got my reading list.

NOTE: Clicking the book covers below will take you directly to Amazon.com where you purchase one if you would like.
