I am off to Saudi before the new year, God willing. I need to stock up on some books. Hopefully as Kindle downloads, but don’t let that hold you back.
What overlooked books have you discovered in 2008?
I just started on Traffic by Tom Vanderbilt, It is abut (oddly enough) traffic. Nice read.
Alex and Me by dr. Irene Pepperberg is about one my favorite animals.
Havana Nocturne by T.J. English is an interesting history of Cuba under the Mob.
I did not like Freakanomics
