very few things in life compare to the joy of getting lost in a good book. Well, OK, maybe donuts and coffee are better, but in the pantheon of awesome things in life, books are somewhere at the top. My favorite haunts used to include the local library or bookstore (remember those), until the Fall of 2008 when I began graduate studies. The combination of working full-time and going to school in the evenings left me with very little time to read for leisure. So, upon finishing grad school this past December, I naturally thought to gift myself a Kindle Fire. But, it looks like I’ve got a few books to get through before I get that device. Here are a few books I purchased during the past few years and never got around to reading:

Catch-22 | Joseph Heller

Cosmos | Carl Sagan

Futures 101 | Richard Waldron

The Glass Bead Game | Hermann Hesse

Heart, Self, & Soul [The Sufi Psychology of Growth, Balance, and Harmony] | Robert Frager

Leonardo Da Vinci | Kenneth Clark

Market Wizards | Jack D. Schwager

The McKinsey Mind | Ethan M. Rasiel and Paul N. Friga

The Tin Drum | Günter Grass

Thus Spoke Zarathustra | Friedrich Nietzsche

Understanding Exposure | Bryan Peterson

It’s neat looking back at this list as it conjures up some great memories, thoughts and feelings as to what I was interested at certain moments in my life.
