Reading List 2009 – 2010

And just like that: 2010 is officially here. Time to look back one last time to review my goals from 2009 and refresh my list of desired accomplishments for the current year.

One of my goals for 2010 is to read 24 new books and post a minimum of one lesson learned, or overview/review, for each book.

I may have missed a few, but this was my reading list from 2009:

Completed:

I still have five to ten books in my library just waiting to be read for the first time. Also, my wish list of books to read continues to grow rapidly.

Besides finishing some of the books I started in 2009, here are a few books I have in queue for this year: Blink, What the Dog Saw, Blue Ocean Strategy, Strength Based Leadership, Freakonomics, The 4-Hour Work Week, and The E Myth.

Where do I begin?
