this is a confession

books i read in 2011

1-The Lost Symbol - Dan Brown
i liked his previous Robert Langdon stories and while this book was a good read, captivating and a page turner, i wasn't as fascinated as with the da vinci code.
2-The Year of Living Biblically - A.J. Jacobs
i probably would not have picked up this book if i had seen it in the store based on the title but it is definitely worth the read. in a way i feel like i had a glimpse into the bible (and many versions of it). go pick up the book, it's worth it.
3-A Reliable Wife - Robert Goldrick
i did not like the style of writing so without further ado i tell you that this is not my book.
4-Musicophilia - Oliver Sacks
i love music so i enjoyed reading this book which is all about medical conditions and how music plays a part in either the symptoms or the recovery. if you're not too afraid of medical terms read the book.
5-Spiele mit der Macht - Marion Knaths (german only)
german women need to learn quite a lot about how to deal with a male dominated (upper) management. this book is a good start for all of us.
6-The five secrets you must know before you die - john izzo
the title sums it up quite accurately. quick read.
7-Die Feigheit der Frauen - Bascha Mika (german only)
this book is a wake up call for (german) women to be aware of role traps. a feminist read but worth it!
8-The tao of Pooh - benjamin hoff
cute read with a hint of chinese philosophy. only suitable for those who can deal with winnie the pooh stories

There is nothing wrong with that! It’s proven that when you are taking naps you increase your Productivity! So every company should allow their employees to nap if they feel like it. It may sound stupid but pays off in the long run….
