Saw your link via Paul Pincus. I like your list! - have read many, but will check out the new titles. Best of luck in school! I hated reading nothing but things related to academics in grad school...good for you for reading more! (where do you find the time?)
Best,
Lecia
thanks! i'm in grad school, studying textile design so at least the books i read for classes/projects get to be interesting!
