Where I heard about it
-
Spotted at Elliott Bay Book Company, Seattle — June 2025 (Books photo album)
-
My own bookshelf — a copy I own but haven’t read: the literal anti-library case, a book bought and shelved rather than a recommendation received.
-
In Patrick O’Shaughnessy’s Full Reading List (Investor Field Guide, 2016) — the archive of his monthly book-club recommendations, saved by Kyle in April 2020 — Full Reading List (Investor Field Guide).
-
On Patrick Collison’s Bookshelf — Patrick Collison’s catalog of the physical books he owns (unflagged). Saved in Kyle’s April 19th, 2020 Roam daily note.
