Finished a book....

As I wrote in an earlier post I have had a hard time reading as of late and have been trying to finish The Art of the Start by Guy Kawasaki for weeks. Well I finally finished it! The most frustrating part of taking so long to read it was that the book was lent to me and I don't like hanging onto other people stuff too long. Well onto my mini review; to put it simply the book was a great! If you are going to start a small group, a business, a non-profit, a website, anything read this book. The author, Guy Kawasaki, was instrumental in the entire Mac launch at Apple and gives you mistakes they made and how they changed their approach as they went along. The book will give you so many ideas and will show you real life examples of what others did when they started companies or launched new products to the world. The book is easy to read and has quite a bit of humor in it. You could easily sit down and read this book cover to cover and not get bored. The Art of the Start reads almost like a prequel to Built to Last and Good to Great by Jim Collins. Check this one out and remember it is also available at the library and library cards are FREE!
