I've read all of them except the last one. And I can assure that it's definitely a good stuff. And makes you think more than a little. Which is also a good stuff.
The Stranger is a wonderfully annoying book. Well, the book itself isn't annoying its more the character that annoys me... and the light imagery.
These books are only slightly better than telling someone to read Who Moved My Cheese or Good to Great.

If only reading books really did build character, our nation's book reviewers would be character machines.
Would add the Book of Proverbs in there if you are talking about building character.
I find it hard to take an article seriously when it misspells entrepreneur.
