During the past couple of years working with Aridni we have accumulated and checked out our fair share of books. Some of them are good, some of them are bad. And quite frankly, some of them haven’t been read by us yet.

In the Aridni Library, we have…

“Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist” by Roger Lowenstein

“The Power of Nice: How to Conquer the Business World With Kindness” by Linda Kaplan Thaler

Of course, We both have a collection of books themselves as well. Books, articles, bookmarks, conversations, and loose ideas have all helped shaped our business ideals. While it isn’t easy to categorize everything, doing it with books isn’t so bad. Here are some of the books that Katie and I own.
