Books

Recently I have finished reading a few books. One of them was a biography and the other 2 fiction. All of them enjoyable!

The Singapore Story is a pretty thick book but an interesting read on how Singapore became a developed nation in 30 years. It gives great insight from the island at the end of the Malayan peninsula.




I have also picked up "Playing for Pizza" and "King of Torts" by John Grisham. Playing for Pizza is a refreshing break from the law novels that he is famous for. It shows his love for football. I do not really understand the game but enjoyed the novel just as much.

The "King of Torts" tells a story of how lawyers become hustlers chasing the dollar then come crashing down into bankruptcy. A lesson on not being greedy and keeping your priorities right.
