Fun

Ok, ok. I know that all work and no play makes Max a very dull boy indeed. So I try to interleave one book purely for enjoyment in between each personal growth or historical book. I am not too picky about these—my rule is that it should take me no more than 3 minutes to pick out a book to read for pleasure.
