You think I might be overdoing it?RELATED: Books
We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
I don't see Wisden's there Peter...shame on you.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about you, Peter, since I don't know your reading speed, but it would be overdoing it for me. I read at a snails pace of about 2-3 minutes for a paperback page and 4-5 minutes for a hardback or softback page.
ReplyDeleteI recently finished The Prime Movers by Edwin Locke. I see it's on your list. It's a quick, but enjoyable read, and explains why it requires a person of moral fibre to make money.
ReplyDeleteHa Ha, mine is similar, but I have an excuse, there a few more Ayn Rand books that I have a absolute compulsion to devour. I am looking forward to diving into them with much passion.
ReplyDeleteGiven a taste of Ayn, I just can not get into much else.
Sinead O'Connor has my words "Nothing Compares"
It was Prine, actually, Rebel Radius.
ReplyDeleteOne novel for me - "Coming Up for Air". I accidentally left it behind, three quarters read, while evecuating a bus, in Turkey, 9 years ago.
PC, correct me if I am wrong, but trying to examine the titles, it looks like they are all Ayn Rand & Peikoff books and nothing else? Am I right?

ReplyDeleteOnly two NZ tests this summer. No stats to look up. :-(
"it looks like they are all Ayn Rand & Peikoff books and nothing else? Am I right?"
Good guess. But I threw in a Bible as well. :-)
Well yes I think that you might struggle to read quite that many books.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you make sure a dictionary is nowhere at hand and you forget what "sleep" means....
