As the Economy Plunges, These Books Soar

Back to blog

I find myself reading more business and marketing books now and less history. Even some of the fiction titles I've picked up have had an economic/business slant to them.

I am buying fewer books for myself, but plan on buying more as gifts this season than in years past. So maybe that will offset some of my slacking.

Alas, I find myself reading the business section of the newspaper more often than I ever thought I would...

I'm also more inclined to *finally* get a library card and borrow books for free rather than shell out money for new books.
