In no particular order.
1) Wine Bar Theory: Great short book that keeps you on your toes.
2) Jab Jab Jab Right Hook: It’s one thing to read a book about marketing that gives examples, in this book Vaynerchuk shows examples.
3) All Marketers Are Liars: One of Godin’s signature books
4) Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance: This will make your brain hurt. Consider just reading about gumption. I wrote a bit on it and the book.
5) David and Goliath: Gladwell, again, knocking it out of the park. A good read.
6) The Gift: It’s a brilliant story of a woman whose life is in shambles, comes around and becomes a successful motivational speaker. The flip is: the President is on her side.
7) Another Roadside Attraction: Robbins doesn’t give anything unique to this book or his other…
8) Half Asleep In Frog Pajamas: but he doesn’t need to. His wit and imagery is remarkable enough.
9) Breakfast Of Champions: Not what I expected, but you might get an inspirational line or two from it.
10) Slaughterhouse Five: Out there. Not sure if I enjoyed it or not.
11) Fahrenheit 451: Out there too. Not sure if I enjoyed it or not.
12) The Master And Margarita: Daniell Radcliffe said it was his favorite book. It takes you on a pretty wild ride, leaves you lonely, but it’s a true magic show.
13) The Craft Beer Revolution: Everything about the craft beer industry summarized and simplified for you.
14) The Terrible And Wonderful Reasons Why I Run Long Distance: It’s a hoot, full of truth, and applicable to more than just running. Web version for you.
A lot more books to come this year now that I’ve graduated from UW Madison.
Stay Positive & Read On
