Day 03 - The best book you've read in the last 12 months
I only gave it four stars on Goodreads at the time, but in retrospect, Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson was probably the best book I've read in the last twelve months. It's a hard book to read, and took me much longer than was normal, but well worth it. It's been described as the 'ultimate geek novel', and yup, I'd have to agree with that. Combining a storyline with detailed descriptions of the concepts behind encryption? Fantastic book.
