So from the looks of my archives, I last posted about my 52 books in a year goal the 2nd of February. I had stopped at #5. Needless to say, I have read a few books since then.
As a side note, I've decided to include literary journals in the list. I feel that most have enough content to deserve 1/2 a book. So, 2 literary journals equals 1 book. If that's a problem for anyone, well, tough.
Also, I'm not including technical books even though March was a big month for my reading of them. Since I rarely read one from cover-to-cover, I'm just going to not count them.
The order might be wrong but here's a list of what I've read:
#6 - The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2004
#7 - Where I'm Calling From by Raymond Carver
#8 - Getting Things Done by David Allen
#9 - The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell
#10 - The Art of Innovation by Tom Kelley
#11 - Hackers and Painters by Paul Graham
#12 - A Whole New Mind by Dan Pink
#13 - Making a Literary Life by Carolyn See
#14 - How We Are Hungry by Dave Eggers
#15 - The Evil B.B. Chow and Other Stories by Steve Almond
#16 - After the Quake by Haruki Murakami
So I think that catches me up. Obviously I wish I could write a little snippet about each book but I can honestly say that I would recommend each one. Another upcoming post will have my current book queue.
