			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was knocking about on <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/nealenssle">LinkedIn</a> this morning and saw they&#8217;ve added a new &#8220;Amazon Reading List&#8221; feature. So I took it for a spin and wrote up quick reviews for three of my new favorite books: Chad Fowler&#8217;s <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/1934356344?tag=neaens-20&#038;camp=14573&#038;creative=327641&#038;linkCode=as1&#038;creativeASIN=1934356344&#038;adid=0P6TDEJ0NMPM5XR0T8M9&#038;">Passionate Programmer</a>, Martin Fowler&#8217;s <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0201485672?tag=neaens-20&#038;camp=14573&#038;creative=327641&#038;linkCode=as1&#038;creativeASIN=0201485672&#038;adid=1GJ08XSF6ETN06SZ737P&#038;">Refactoring</a>, and Bob Martin&#8217;s <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/0132350882?tag=neaens-20&#038;camp=14573&#038;creative=327641&#038;linkCode=as1&#038;creativeASIN=0132350882&#038;adid=1MJG11X0VN3DHBF9M1MB&#038;">Clean Code</a>. </p>
<p>Then I thought: Why should LinkedIn have all the fun? So I&#8217;ve added a new page to my site called <a href="http://nealenssle.com/blog/reading/">Reading</a> where I&#8217;ve posted the reviews.</p>
<p>&#8220;What are you reading?&#8221; 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. </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s see if I can keep this up.</p>
