Here is the list of all 100 books featured in The 100 Best for your readers: http://100bestbiz.com/more-on-the-100-best/ You right about the length of the reviews. They give people just enough space to get a good idea of what the book is about. As booksellers, we have always advocated reading books and our reviews are persuasion pieces to convince you to open the cover. And you are absolutely right about finding books to read. There are a ton of great resources. The biggest problem is what economists refer to as "search costs." For most people, the search costs for finding what to read are too great. Our book puts it all in one place for them and gets them reading again. Your readers also might enjoy the bonus chapter we have put together on industry books people should read (it also gives a good sense of what they will find in the book): http://100bestbiz.com/100Best-IndustryChapter.pdf Thanks again. Nick,
