At Ignite Research LLC we're big into reading. And we're very old fashioned about it - no e-readers here. There is something about checking a book out of the library, chatting with the librarian about what's new and interesting, holding that book in a comfy chair, and getting lost in the story.
Here are a few of our favorite books from 2014. We hope you find something interesting to put on your reading list.
