I have a soft spot for entrepreneurial stories. I love the unsure start, the twists and turns as they try things that work and things that don‘t, and their success. I enjoyed and appreciated the honesty in this one. Plus, I fondly remember receiving movies in the mail.

Marc Randolph is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, advisor and investor best known for co-founding Netflix with Reed Hastings. More business history than memoir this is an engaging, self-deprecating read about Netflix‘s origins and how it weathered common start-up issues and the dot-com bust of 2001 but Randolph left before Netflix moved into streaming and content business or battled Blockbuster, so the book stops before the real story gets started.
