<p>Do a persons books tell you something about him or her? I&#8217;d hope so. Looking at the stack of books that I have next to me on my desk, I realised it shows what I&#8217;m aiming for. I wish to be better at what I already do well, I want to build and expand so I&#8217;m fluent in related areas. I want to be comfortable that I&#8217;m good at my job, as it means a lot to me. So this is my list, my wishes, in no specific order other than what they currently are stacked up as on my desk:</p>
