Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress by Dai Sijie
4.0
Gentle, magical, wonderfully woven story. Takes you away to another world.
City of Thieves by David Benioff
5.0
Amazing how the author combines downright hilarity with brutal imagery in the span of a few sentences. One of those books where you fall in love with the characters and want them to be real. Loved it.
Fresh Air Fiend: Travel Writings by Paul Theroux
3.0
Probably more of a 3.5. This book is split into distinct and separate chapters, some of which I absolutely loved, others that I didn't and mostly skipped over.
Small Is the New Big: And 183 Other Riffs, Rants, and Remarkable Business Ideas by Seth Godin
5.0
A fabulous introduction to Seth Godin, this book is a compilation of posts from his blog over the years. So insightful, I learned so much!
Purple Cow: Transform Your Business by Being Remarkable by Seth Godin
5.0
If you're a small business owner and only plan on reading one business book ever, read this one.
Never Eat Alone: And Other Secrets to Success, One Relationship at a Time by Keith Ferrazzi
2.0
It was a struggle to make it to the end of this one, and I'm not even sure why. Most people I know who have read it loved it, maybe I need to give it another go one day.
Ignore Everybody: And 39 Other Keys to Creativity by Hugh MacLeod
3.0
Some of the 40 keys to creativity were gold, but a few seemed like fillers. Worth it though!
Atonement by Ian McEwan
5.0
I think I originally read this in 2007 and this is probably my third time reading it through since then. Brilliantly written, I can't even describe it.
