Herein' lies a list of books.Some, I have read. Some I would like to read. And some are somewhere in between.
Below you will find my list - along with links to thoughts, pages, blog posts, and other observations about them. Most of what I write in this section, unless used in a more formal capacity like creating posts or fleshing out ideas, may be somewhat incoherent. I am sharing these in their “not for public consumption but still public facing” forms. They will probably read like “odd dude leaving himself memos”, and will be absolutely filled to the brim with with typos, terrible grammar, and nearly barley passable coherence. I am playing around with the idea of segregating them from my more thought out notes. Perhaps with tags of some sort?
