When we are not building awesome websites or getting you on page one of Google, the BFM crew loves to read. Some of us love graphic novels, plays, and horror stories. I asked my colleagues:

What are you currently reading?

And what is your all-time favorite book ?

Zack | Marketing Project Manager

What are you currently reading?
The last (ever) published issue of Condé Nast Portfolio Magazine
What is your all-time favorite book?
William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury

Byrne | Copywriter

What are you currently reading?
Bernstein’s Against the Gods: The Remarkable Story of Risk
What is your all-time favorite book?
Neal Stephenson’s Cryptonomicon; It’s about more or less everything, but mostly about math, code breaking, love, startups, survivalist lawyers, and using Tolkien’s fantasy taxonomy as a model for understanding people.

Lonnie | Designer

What are you currently reading?
I just finished Bottomless Belly Button, a graphic novel by Dash Shaw.
What is your all-time favorite book?
I can’t pick a favorite book, but my favorite play is The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams.

Ishmael | New Media Strategist

What are you currently reading?
I am currently reading Salinger’s Nine Stories. I have a short attention span so this book is great!
What is your all-time favorite book?
Favorite book of all-time; that’s a tough one. I’m going to go with Márquez‘ One Hundred Years of Solitude.

Alhan| Director of Marketing

What are you currently reading?
I am currently reading Gerzema’s The Brand Bubble: The Looming Crisis in Brand Value and How to Avoid It.
What is your all-time favorite book?
The Heart of the Matter by Graham Greene, but Samuel Beckett’s play Waiting for Godot is a close second.
 

So, what have you recently read that has inspired, surprised, or changed your view or perspective? Reply with a comment. I would love to pick up some new books for my commute.
