121 Books

December 27th, 2009 Jorg Jansen No comments

booksNow that the year is almost over I’m also almost done with the last book of this year, which is a management book by Matthew Stewart. Great read by the way! Bought it yesterday and already I’m at page 200. I’ll try to finish it this week.

As I kept a reading list this year it is easy to look back what I’ve read this year. It’s probably the most I’ve ever read in a year! 121 books. That’s 10 books per months, or 2,5 book per week. Wow, I’m proud at myself.

The 5 books that made the most impression on me, or that I clearly remember from the whole bunch are:

  1. Titan
  2. Free
  3. Blink
  4. Inside Drucker’s brainn
  5. The Big Switch

This is for sure one of the habits I’m most proud of, taken in account that I wasn’t a reader at all 10 years ago. Let’s try to read even more in 2010!

Need…More…Books!

November 18th, 2009 Jorg Jansen No comments

Damn, I made a mistake! I didn’t take action when I took my last unread book out of the bookshelf (The World Is Flat). I just finished the book and remember it was my last one I had to read.

It’s now almost midnight and I feel like a junkie! I need more books! But where to get them at this hour. Ahhh, maybe some late night shopping at Bol will ease the senses… Yes, I know… I need help.

Below a picture of my collection of books. There is still room for more.
