I maintain a book list that I developed for my personal use but you could just as easily use goodreads.com or Amazon's wish list. Everytime I see or hear a book recommendation I add it to the list. My list now has over 1200 books that I'd like to read so I have no problem finding a book. You could also find the books on Amazon you like and then check out the recommendations. That should lead you to others. To suit your interest in business I would recommend: - Barbarians at the Gate: The Rise and Fall of RJR Nabisco (I'll never look at public companies the same after reading this book) - Founders at Work
