I just came across Cheryl Mack‘s book list on angel investing and thought it’d make for a great share.

Here we go:

1 – Secrets of Sand Hill Road by Scott Kupor

On how VCs decide where and how much to invest, and how entrepreneurs can get the best possible deal. Written for founders but super useful for Angels.

2 – Angel Investing by David S. Rose

The author is CEO of Gust & founder of New York Angels. Tons of great learnings in here!

3 – Venture Deals: Be Smarter Than Your Lawyer and Venture Capitalist by Brad Feld

This one is written for founders and goes much more into venture stage deals. It’s useful to understand the whole process that the startups you’re considering investing in are going to go through.

4 – ANGEL by Jason Calacanis

5 – The Business of Venture Capital by Mahendra R.

Since its initial publication, The Business of Venture Capital has been hailed as the definitive, most comprehensive book on the subject.
