To-Read List

Forgive my lack of posting on this blog in the past several months. Just haven't felt inclined to write. Recently I was browsing through my collection of books and realized I have a ton of them that I haven't yet read, or ones I started reading and never finished. Being an engineer, I made a list of them. And so I share with you.

Most of these I've either had for years, purchased at thrift stores, or were given as gifts. Enjoy!
