My book shelf is pretty full and after 4 years I'm back on the e-reader wave.
Just copped a new Kindle Paper White and I'm midway through Jackie Robinson: I Never Had It Made (which is amazing by the way). I'm pretty big into autobiographies.

Mostly read nonfiction, although the right novel is always under consideration.
But what's the coli recommending right now?

Don't act like yall don't have time to read books.
Yall read all of PK's 600 reply threads.

let me post up in here, I need some good recommendations :popcorn: I liked the New Jim Crow btw
Yeah I'm behind on a lot.

I've got that on my list.
A few typical philosophy/business/self-improvement books....Influence: The psychology of persuasion, Thinking: Fast and Slow, No Two Alike: Human Nature and Human Individuality, the Andre Agassi autobiography, that Ta Nehisi Coates book - Between the World and Me....and a few others.

I had a long list of books on my old iphone in the Notes section but when I upgraded to the 6S Plus, I lost them

I got the original Kindle when it came out loaded it with a bunch of books and never got used to it

Tried the same thing years later with the family tablet and again didn't like it.

Paper books >>

Yeah I was like that.
But when you've got several pounds of books it's a pain in the ass to store them/move them.

Plus I'm pretty weird with my books where I don't like to bend them all out of shape when reading them so I barely open the pages to keep em straight. It becomes uncomfortable after a while. I know, it's weird.

Also I gotta read:

guns germs steel,
as a man thinketh,
human all too human,
the invisible man,
confessions of an economic hitman
