A Good Read: Gone Girl

(Source: Moon Hoon)

I'm a book snob.

I generally like 3 genres -- depressing, funny or some sort of social criticism.  I get nervous if a book becomes mainstream, especially if it's likely to be sold at the nearest Wal-Mart.

Gone Girl is the new "hit" book, debuting at book clubs around the US.  Its accolades include the NYTimes bestseller list & upcoming cinematization starring Reese Witherspoon.

I finished the book in two days.  It's clever & griping, ping-ponging the reader between two fully-developed narrators.  I have mixed thoughts on the ending, but thoroughly enjoyed the journey.

Why I work at Google

Google's great.  Awesome perks.  Smart people.  Futuristic products.

But, management consulting also was good to me.  International travel.  Tons of frequent flier miles.  Smart people.

Why did I want to come to Google?

It's mission: "Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful"

Basically, I want more Kelvins in the world.
