2014 Books

Lots of free time in Serbia afforded plenty of opportunities for reading. I also dipped into Justified, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Silicon Valley, Broad City and Game of Thrones on television. Of these, I think I enjoyed Silicon Valley the most, but it is fully my intention to damn it with faint praise. I had a number of problems with Breaking Bad, and, of the above list, found it to be the most disappointing; but that might have been the result of high expectations, along with the fact that it's really not my kind of show.

Channeling   Chris Rock, I'll list my top five, followed by the whole list, which is also available on Goodreads. Hat Tip to Pat (my only Goodreads friend at this point) for his reviews and suggestions; and also to Lois, Sarah, Worldwide and Monika for their gifts and suggestions.

  1. Makes sense. It seems to be consistent with what's happening in the Mediterrannean and Mexico. But I don't recall anything in the book on this subject, so your theory holds.
