提摩西‧費里斯《一週工作4小時》──大步邁向理想生活

因為看了《身體調校聖經》，才想把作者的另一本書也找來看。綜合這兩本書，可以看到作者真的很勇於挑戰規則，努力追求更高的效率和生產力。

這是一本很精彩，也很在乎倫理的小說。

圓山牛排館晚餐食記

這次員工旅遊住在圓山大飯店，難得有機會住圓山，決定晚餐也在圓山吃。

最近比較常吃中菜，因此最後吃了評價不錯的圓山牛排館，果然物有所值，推薦給大家。

紀伯倫《先知》──充滿靈性的智慧箴言

對我而言，紀伯倫大概跟泰戈爾、聶魯達一樣，都是久仰大名但不甚瞭解的文學家。後來從其他書中輾轉讀到，才真的開始比較熟悉紀伯倫。

陳湘靜、林大利《噢！原來如此 有趣的鳥類學》──可愛又有內涵的科普書

最近想好好認識鳥類，買了好幾本趣味的科普書，像是《非實用野鳥圖鑑》、《和路邊的野鳥做朋友》，最推的就是這本《噢！原來如此 有趣的鳥類學》。聽說已經在規畫續作了，非常期待。
