Hey all. I hope its alright to post this here. If it's not, I'm sure it will be moved the appropriate forum.

Anyway. As the title says, I'm compiling a booklist of literature to read. I am opening to anything, regardless of the area. I'm currently a syndicalist, so I am especially looking for literature on that aspect, but I am willing to read anything.

Thank you RevLeft!

How are you? I am interested in book compiling too! However, think concealed money in your relationship might be a sign that your spouse is having an affair? Watch for these indications and open the lines of communication.
