One of my goals for 2011 was to read more, and while I fell short of my goal of reading a book every two weeks, I did manage to read more than did in 2010. Here's what I read this year:
- American Gods by Neil Gaiman
- At Home: A Short History of Private Life by Bill Bryson
- Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
- Ecotopia by Ernest Callenbach
- Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
- The Grand Design by Stephen Hawking
- The Great Stagnation by Tyler Cowen
- The Lost Worlds of 2001 by Arthur C. Clarke
- The New Capitalist Manifesto by Umair Haque
- The Next Decade by George Friedman
- Zero History by William Gibson
I also read all five A Song of Fire and Ice books by George R. R. Martin (I read through the first four in about a month so I could read the new one when it was released):
- Game of Thrones
- A Clash of Kings
- A Storm of Swords
- A Feast for Crows
- A Dance with Dragons
I'm also in the middle of three books:
- 1491 by Charles Mann
- The Information by James Gleick
- A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson
