I decided instead of new articles this weekend I'd just send out a list of books I would recommend reading. Many of these are reviewed on my blog, (Made of Stardust and Stubbornness), some have not yet been reviewed as I read them before I started the blog. I'm planning to review those at some point. There are additional books on my blog that I could list here as well but I didn't want to end up listing everything.
