In Anticipation Of My Next Book Take-Away
When I began writing book take-aways, it started with a goal of clearing my bookshelf of long unread books. But as I traveled along this literary journey, I discovered other books to read, many of which were mentioned in some of the books I previously read. One of those books is Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.
I look forward to finishing this book and writing my take-aways, if for any other reason it is well over 1,000 pages long! Most of the books I have previously read were no longer than 300 pages, so it will be interesting to see when I finish it. Stay tuned.

Mike, glad you will be reading it. Only comments are (& I’m not giving anything away) are that you will repeatedly say “this is happening right now!” Also, you can knock out about 100 pages when you get to a certain section. You will know when you get there! A = A! Easily one of the greatest books ever written!
Also, have a go at giving out some ongoing take-aways.
Cheers,
DP

I was thinking the same thing after I posted my original comment, that this would be a fascinaing time to be reading Atlas Shrugged….
