Books in 2012
Edit: How did I not remember that I had already posted the list of books I read? Wow. Clearly was half asleep last time around or something. At least this entry has links in it? Anyway, definitely shooting for more books this year, though a good portion of them will be self-help books and training materials because I'm going through a training plan to move up at work. It also looks like I need to do a better job at actually using my livejournal. As per usual.
My list of books read over the last year is depressingly small. It's less than half of what my lists usually are, which makes me incredibly sad. I've starred my favorites of the year, which you can read about in the 10 Books column from November over at Portrait here. Only the first book on the list has a review up over at Portrait, which you can check out here if so inclined. Shows you how often we've been updating reviews over the last year. If you are curious about any of the books on the list, as always, just ask.
