Some books I've read

7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE

by Stephen Covey

I implemented some of the suggestions and some I partially implemented. It's a good stepping off point to your own customized solution.

ADVENTURES OF MARK TWAIN

by Mark Twain

Don't remember much other than it was not a bad book to read.

by George Orwell

Everybody knows this book. I found it to be an easy, enjoyable read.

AUTOMATE THE BORING STUFF

by Al Sweigart

I liked this book, but I felt like it could have gone deeper and provided more... I don't know, just more.

BABYLON RISING

by Tim LaHaye

CAPTURED BY GRACE

by David Jeremiah

Easy explanation of some biblical issues.

CULT OF THE DEAD COW

by Joseph Menn

So far it's slightly interesting although not compelling. Definitely worth a read if you're into tech and the history of tech though. Update: I gave up.

EAT THIS, NOT THAT

by David Zinczenko

If you are not up to speed on the hazards of current food choice problems you might enjoy this.

by Joel Rosenberg

Liked this one better than The Last Days.

FREE AS IN FREEDOM: RICHARD STALLMAN'S CRUSADE FOR FREE SOFTWARE

by Sam Williams

Good historical information as to why Stallman might be the way he is.

by Lawrence Lessig

Lengthy, lots of info. Not a light read.

GETING THINGS DONE

by David Allen

Popular and effective means of organizing your tasks and thoughts.

GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, MY UNCLE DOES

by Carla Rene

Good. Weird, but good.

HOW TO LIVE ON 24 HOURS A DAY

by Arnold Bennett.

It was ok. Might be the kick in the pants somebody needs to get out of a slump.

by Stephen King

A small collection of short stories. It was enjoyable although not something I couldn't put down.

by Billy Graham

A very methodical, chronological retelling of his life. It's interesting although, at least at this moment in time, not an extremely compelling read. Update: I skipped around a little bit, but did finish it. It's a good book if you have an interest in Billy Graham.

LEARN PYTHON THE HARD WAY

I liked this book and it's approach. It just seemed to make a huge jump from teaching simple techniques to mastering intermediate ideas with no real segway between the two.

LEFT BEHIND SERIES

by Tim LaHaye

Read these years and years ago. There was some controversy (naturally) as it's not a word-for-word description of the end times. It does get the point across and might point you toward picking up a bible and verifying the information yourself.

LIVING THE FIT LIFE

by Patrick McCrann

Not really applicable to my circumstances, by certainly some good informatin.

LOVE AMONG THE CHICKENS

by P.G. Wodehouse

I like his other books better, but it's still ok.

MY MAN JEEVES

by P.G. Wodehouse

An easy read. Entertaining.

RIGHT HO, JEEVES

by P.G. Wodehouse

An easy read. Entertaining.

SPIRIT WARRIORS

by Stu Webber

Encouraging read.

THE ART OF MANLINESS

by Brett McKay

More of a guide for personal hygiene and behaviors for men. Stuff your dad might have (should have) taught you.

THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES

by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

I like most of the Sherlock Holmes books so I'm a little biased but I found it enjoyable.

THE LAST DAYS

by Joel Rosenberg

Fast paced, enjoyable book.

THE MILLION POUND BANK NOTE

by Mark Twain

Silly, but enjoyable.

THE REVOLUTION

Ok, not great.

THE SECRET LIFE OF BIKERS

by Jerry Langton

It's okay. If you don't read it you won't have missed much though.

by William P. Young

I really liked this and it was an unexpected purchase. I just wanted to pick up an easy read for a beach trip. It's been made into a movie as well.

by Warren Buffet

Was a difficult read for me. I thought it might be more interesting than it was. I stopped reading about half-way.

WHEN YOU ARE ENGULFED IN FLAMES

by David Sedaris

Ok, not great.
