32. Let My People Go Surfing – Yvon Chouinard

I love Patagonia more with everything I learn about them. This book, by founder Yvon Chouinard, is equal parts personal memoir, business philosophy, and manifesto for saving the world. He's an exceptional writer with an incredible story, and a lot to say about all aspects of business, from effective copywriting to workplace equality to ethical business practice. It's one of the best books I've read all year. 

"I have a definition of evil different from most people. Evil doesn't have to be an overt act; it can be merely the absence of good. If you have the ability, the resources, and the opportunity to do good and you do nothing, that can be evil."

31. The Sense of an Ending – Julian Barnes

A short, gripping read about a man at the end of his life, reflecting on events that happened much earlier. Without wishing to spoil anything, events aren't quite as they seemed and the result is a meditation on ageing, memory and regret. 

"Does character develop over time? In novels, of course it does: otherwise there wouldn't be much of a story. But in life? I sometimes wonder."

Probably my favourite ad of the year
