Instead of dinner and movie, @stephliverani and I did dinner and a bookstore.

Excited to apply book triage tactics from @patrickc, @naval, Adler’s How To Read A Book.

Let the triage begin:
“Life is too short to not be reading the very best book you're aware of at every given moment.” - @patrickc
The most important part of How To Read A Book is picking the right book.
On choosing a book to buy:

1. read the title, subtitle
2. read the beginning and end of the authors note next to the table of contents
3. Review table of contents
4. Read some of the beginning, middle, end
5. If great, buy
On buying a book:

Buy hardcover over digital/audio - @rabois

Consider used hardcover on Amazon (less $) - @pcollison
On reading a book:

It’s ok not to finish a book. It’s ok to skip around or put it down. @naval
