Books

Over the course of the last month, I’ve been reading a three book series written by Ian W. Toll on the history of World War II in the Pacific. I’m currently on the second book and I can’t recommend it enough.

As a kid, I loved it when my parents took me to the library. I read often and loved checking out books to read. As an adult it’s no different.

While I didn't quite hit my 2022 goal of 30 books, I did manage to read 20 books.

Earlier this year I backed a Kickstarter campaign by Cory Doctorow & Rebecca Giblin for their new book Chokepoint Capitalism. I had read several of Cory's books and consider him someone who is knowledgeable about the creative industry. So when the Kickstarter campaign popped up in my feeds, I decided it was worth my investment, and a read.

At the recommendation of Kai Ryssdal from Marketplace, I ended up purchasing a new coffee table book called Apollo Remastered. And oh man was it worth the purchase.

I didn't read as much as I wanted to in 2021, managing a measly nine books.

Back in September, I finished reading Think Again by Adam Grant. It's a fantastic book that made me think about how I form my thoughts and opinions, and how I go about possibly re-forming them as evidence changes.
