New Books

I've got some new books on the way. Good old Amazon.com is sending me some new knowledge. This year I have a stack of books that have their own shelf. They are my 2008 books. Most of you know that I read a fair amount 18-20 books a year, plus magazine subscriptions.

Many of the books I read I do because I have to (school), the rest I read because I want to. This year it seems that some of those are overlapping. I put up my wish list, and referred people there at Christmas. I received a handful from people. But among the ones they bought were required texts for an upcoming class. SCORE!

One of my habits is that when I order books from amazon I always order enough to qualify for free shipping. That way the last book I order is for me, and the real cost of that book is only 2-3 dollars. It's a little gift for myself.
