    When packing for a trip, do you spend more time selecting books than clothes?

        "Antifragile" by Taleb is one of the few books I'd recommend to almost anyone. Check it out:https://www.amazon.com/Antifragile-Things-That-Disorder-Incerto/dp/0812979680/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483881849&sr=8-1&keywords=antifragility …

        My ereader saved me from this. I can bring a whole stack at minimal weight. Paper books usually stay home (usually).

        you can actually dog ear, but annotations aren't super easy that's true.

        on Kindle you can simply click in the upper right of any page and it'll add a dog tag 😊.
