I’ve been working on a project to share more about the books I’m reading. It all started with my frustration around how painful it was to share the books I’d read in 2024 (see my post here). Two days ago, I shared a list of the 52 books I read in 2024, sorted by month (see my post here). Yesterday, I shared My Learning Library, a searchable list of all the books I’ve read, and I’ll update it weekly (see my post here).

Those were all lists of books, but I built something else, too. Today, I’m sharing the third part of this project: Book Profile Pages. Each book I’ve read has a dedicated page on my blog that includes a description, my notes, and other information about the book. The stories of entrepreneurs often overlap. It’s common for entrepreneurial biographies to describe deals or battles with other entrepreneurs. They also mention other books (I find most books I read this way). But it wasn’t easy for me to see those connections visually, so I built Book Profile Pages to solve this problem. It’s something I hope other people find helpful because it makes it easier for them to discover books and other information about people they’re interested in learning more about.

To see examples of book profile pages, check out the page for The Gambler, a biography about Kirk Kerkorian. This biography helped me discover another entrepreneur, Billy Wilkerson, and I read two biographies about him. Another example is A Passion to Win, the autobiography by Sumner Redstone. See the profile page for A Passion to Win here.

This is the third part of this project that I’ve shared this week, but the project isn’t done yet. I need to do more work on other parts before sharing them, which I hope will be in a few weeks. In the meantime, I hope the book profile pages and other pages I launched this week are useful!
