Nice collection of books there. One of my goals for 2008 is read at least 5 books a year or more.
I have a book stack about that high. However, it always appears to be that high.
“Memoria de mis putas tristes” it’s a good book, and what about PHP? great!
We have to propose this year to learn django and ruby on rails.
There is a mistake in the Coelho book. It`s montaña and not montana.
Like it some books. Very eclectic. But between García Marquez and Coelho there is an ocean between them.
In terms of quality, of course.
