Books we love
Category: Publishing , Bookselling
We focus most of our attention on the technology side of publishing and bookselling and libraries, simply because that's where the growth and fun seems to be these days (if it wasn't fun, I wouldn't be there).
Lately I've been consulting to a company in Newark, NJ. From my house, that's a 90-minute commute each way. So naturally, I need some great reads to keep me from leaping out the PATH window in utter boredom. I'm not talking about great business books or even philosophy and politics - I'm talking about novels of the entertaining sort:
The Labyrinth, by Kate Mosse
The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield
Dr. Strange and Mister Norell, by Susannah Clarke
An Instance of the Fingerpost, by Iain Pears
Just some recommendations - if you've got a long haul each day, these big wallowing novels are amazing to get lost in.
