The man who doesn't read has no advantage over the man who can't

So I decided back at the beginning of May to challenge myself to read 100 books fully over the next 12 months. That works out to about 2 books per week and for someone who loves to read as much as I do I figured that it would help to pass the time and it would also give me the opportunity to be exposed to more types of books than I typically would avail myself of. I'm now about three and half weeks in and I have read 10 books so I am ahead of my pace at this point, which is good, but trying to make sure that I am not coming out of the gate too quick just to fade in the middle of the race. I will be posting reviews of each of the books as I move forward for those of you who might be interested and would appreciate any recommendations that you might have on things that you think are worth the time, must reads, or even things you've been thinking about reading but just haven't been able to make the commitment yet, let me be your guinea pig. The only boundary I ask of you is that it be non-fiction, I'm just not a fiction guy at all as a really like to learn as I read, no offense to you fiction fans out there.

Thanks for your help and I hope that you will follow me on this little adventure and that maybe it will inspire a few of you to do some things you haven;t done is a while or even new things that have been in your mind but just haven't been able to translate to your feet and hands.
