Curious to see what the Lemmings are reading this year.

I'll say my favorite this year was "The People of the Deer" by Farley Mowat, a novelization of the authors time spent in the Canadian North.

An incredible read with some wonderful prose.

"The Phoenix Project" by Gene Kim. It's been a revelation. The second book, "The Unicorn Project", is not as good, but still definitely worth a read.

Oh The Phoenix Project sounds really interesting, fictional devops and IT what an interesting idea!

It's only fictional as a full story. All the little events, substories, incodents - they're all real.
