What Next?
I'm going to try and post the books that get brought up on the list here, and lists of books that
folks have said they'd like to read. Maybe we can start checking them out to spark ideas for what
to read next. The links on the books lead to Amazon.com. When you buy from these links, we get some percentage of the book price
sent back to us. We'll put the money towards dinner or drinks for a meeting.
