I really liked Nudge by Richard Thaler. Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely was also very good!

I agree that Food Inc. was interesting. I have to read Fast Food Nation. That sounds good from Glen's review.

I've seen Food Inc. I think it's Fast Food Nation meets Omnivore's Dilemma (another book I want to read)?

I found Fast Food Nation went into great detail than the movie. It's also a great business book read as you learn about the rise of companies like McDonald's and Disney (to some extent). It's pretty fascinating to see how McD's has grown.

Some that come to mind: Dune, Atlas Shrugged, The Fountainhead, Neuromancer. I've been wanting to re-read Waterhsip Down (gotta be the BEST book about bunny rabbits - really).

Ooh. All good books that I reread on a regular basis...except Watership Down. I've never read that.

Are you going to the Financial Blogger Conference? I think we'd have one hell of a time, lol!

The Conrad Richter trilogy: The Trees; The Fields; The Town are fictional accounts of early American life on the frontier. I read them again and again.

My picks for non-fiction wealth related books are on my site under the Resources/Books tab.

Let's nerd it up a little: Securities Analysis, anyone?

Could read that book like a bestselling novel. I couldn't put it down the first time I opened it up.

I'm a sponge for how-to kinds of books. One of my all-time favorites is You Can Negotiate Anything, by Herb Cohen. He's got a very entertaining style.

Just for fun I generally like anything by Bill Bryson.

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho changed my way of thinking about the world. It is by far the best book I have ever read and the only book I have read twice.

Also a fan of the "Hitchhiker's Trilogy" and a handful of finance books.
