I find i dont refer to the pdf books as often as i do to the paper ones. Which i thought would be the other way around. Having said that the pdf books are alot lighter to carry. They fit on a pen drive so ive got them with me most times. If i had the money, I`d buy both the PDF and the paper version.

Keeps me sane. Wish I had time to read other non-geek books, but haven't this year. Haven't read a non-geek book since the last Harry Potter - sad I know. @San - move over to .NET ASAP! @Anna - Advanced DOM Scripting - NICE! Geek books and coffee go together like peanut-butter and jelly :) @Interwebhunt - You said, Paul hit a home run with that one. @Jack – gotta have my coffee and read before work. Keeps me sane.

One of the few books that I've actually kept around as a reference material. The ultimate CSS is a fantastic book, I never leave home without it.

I feel exactly the same toward books (the smell, the texture, etc - all matters). My gems of this year were - AdvancED DOM Scripting and Professional ASP.NET 2.0 - great content. Nice ‘little’ stack.

I wish I could do that. I've read a ton of books this year but none were technical I'm afraid. Just finished the first book in the Book of the New Sun trilogy by Gene Wolf. One of the best books I've ever read. Up there with Catch-22 which is high praise indeed. I’m impressed you get up early enough to have a coffee + read a book before work. I wish I could do that.
