Let’s Do This Backward

A thought occurred to me. Let’s post the best books we’ve read. Why? Because finding out what each of us has already read is more helpful than lists of what we could read. Over the years I have read lots of good books, but as soon as it’s not “in” anymore, I forget about it. Then, I can’t recall the name, because I am forgetful, distracted, and well, whatever. So, please do us all a favor and post a few of the best books you’ve ever read. If you have to write a note next to it, do so. Here’s my list to get started, in no particular order:

1. Wild Swans (three generations of women in China, an epic you can’t put down, own-it, will send it to you as long as you pass it along to someone else)

2. Wild Flower and the Snow Fan (another great story of China)

3.  The E-Myth Revisited (a small business parable, must read for business owners)

4. Twilight (all four books, just pure fun, own it, will send it to you as long as you pass it along to someone else)

5. Mountains Beyond Mountains: Healing the World (True story, couldn’t put it down)

6. Why Men and Women Act the Way They Do (funny, practical, religious)

7. The Red Tent (Biblical Fiction)

8.  Airframe (by Michael Crichton)
