These are the books that I've read between Jan 1st 2015 and Sep 30th 2015, hopefully someone will find some useful/intersting title. There is no fiction (I just finished reading the first work of fiction of the year).
I will update this list once in a while. Must reads are: Kissinger's, Branson's, and Carnegie's books. And I stress Kissinger's book.
Goldsmith's was good, and Jacobsen's book was a very nice surprise (you can see sidewalks as missed opportunities instead of simple physical places) if you like the subject.
PLEASE AVOID Marie Kondo's "The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up". It's dull, idiotic, stupid, useless, full of BS (talk to your underwear) and new-age BS.
Total: 54 books.
