My Reading List
Anyone who knows me can tell you that I am a voracious reader. My interest is mostly in non-fiction, though I do have a soft spot for things like science fiction, detective stories, and classic literature. I read about various subjects, and keep a list of books on my LinkedIn profile. However, for those of you not interested in LinkedIn or heading there to find my reading list, I’ve decided to include it here. These are books I’ve read for school and for pleasure, and is broken down roughly by subject for non-fiction and by genre for fiction. I don’t want to make this list enormous, so I won’t be writing reviews on here. If it interests you, perhaps I’ll do that as part of the blog. For now, I’ll place an asterisk next to titles I was especially happy with. Enjoy!
