Reading is fundamental

I was knocking about on LinkedIn this morning and saw they’ve added a new “Amazon Reading List” feature. So I took it for a spin and wrote up quick reviews for three of my new favorite books: Chad Fowler’s Passionate Programmer, Martin Fowler’s Refactoring, and Bob Martin’s Clean Code.

Then I thought: Why should LinkedIn have all the fun? So I’ve added a new page to my site called Reading where I’ve posted the reviews.

“What are you reading?” is one of my standard interview questions. And despite never having enough time for anything I do try to read a few new books on programming, management, and business every year.

Let’s see if I can keep this up.
