Anyone reading more during the lockdown?
Which books are you reading at the moment - and any favourite books you read during 2020?
I wonder which books Jack Bauer is reading at the moment!
I recently wrote a blog post on the amount of business books read during a year - you can check it out at: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-many-books-do-you-read-year-simon-pittman

Hi, just read your blog. Agree with you on the importance of continuous learning. I am terrible for having several books on the go (I'm going to blame degree of attention deficit for that). At the moment, the work related ones I have to hand are: 'Crossing Borders' by Nathan Lustig. Great book for anyone interested in doing business in Latin America, based on first hand experience and some really good insight, at least from an American perspective. The other one is 'No Problem Here, Understanding Racism in Scotland' - excellent book, even if slightly uncomfortable read at times - I'll say no more for fear of getting into a political debate but well worth reading if anyone interested.
I'm certainly not a book a week person but I do always have a book on the go, and return regularly to books I have read before (that again is because I don't pay attention to everything first time round!)
Thank you for reading my blog post and sharing your thoughts. Sounds like an interesting selection of books :-)
Not really a big reader I'll be honest, but I would like to get into something but can't really find a good book to get in to that interestes me enough to keep me focused :/
I can recommend a Facebook group where you can find some great recommendations and ideas... although I'm very biased! ;-)

Aww thank you very much I appreciate that. Haha I think were all a bit biased with somethings! :)
I am currently reading why we sleep and Louis Theroux’s book, Gotta get Theroux this. Highly recommend the book this is going to hurt by Adam Kay.
Sounds like a great selection! Like the title of Louis Theroux's book! :-)
I'm doing a bit more reading now, but mostly auble books. Just finished "Rework" by Mike Chamberlain the second time
Don't think I've come across that book!
I often like to reread and revisit books I've previously read too. :-)
Jack is still using books as lethal weapons! However....I'm currently reading Cosa Nostra, the history of the Sicilian mafia, by John Dickie
