Book Recommendations
Reading is one of the most beneficial things you can do in your free time. Sitting down with a good book reduces stress, expands your vocabulary, improves your memory, boosts your writing skills, and generally makes you a stronger, more well-rounded person.
Here are five recommended books, which members of the Anchor Loans staff have found to be useful in their business and personal lives.
