I love reading to get away from the PC every now and then. At the moment I'm reading Made To Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die. What book(s) are you currently reading and what books do you recommend?

A recommendation from me would be: The Magic of Thinking Big - by David Joseph Schwart. Really motivates you, in a way that I thought a book wouldn't be able to. :)

Hehe, reading anything is better than reading nothing. Which is my downfall. I seriously need to start reading books again, I haven't really read anything since school. That was many years ago. :( I should put that on my "New Years Resolution List"... Read books again, and actually do it!

Well, I'm also reading "Emperor: The Field of the Swords" by Conn Iggulden. Never really took to the freelancer/entrepreneur/business/etc. style of fiction and the only web dev books I "read" are programming manuals but if cookbooks don't count then neither to they! :)
