My Books
October 19, 2009  |  Reading

I have always found that one of the best ways to get to know someone is to talk about the books that they read and enjoy. For this reason, I am publishing a list of many the books that are in my possession. booksThis should give you a little more insight into my interests and let you get to know me a little better.  If you have any book suggestions or comments on the subject, please post below or send me a personal message. Stay tuned, as I will be posting a book review on Grown Up Digital by Don Tapscott in the next day or two.
