This page is dedicated to Books. My own personal Markdown version of goodreads or Hardcover.

I love to read. I learn so many new things and through books, I get to immerse myself in situations I probably will never actually experience in "real life".

This page is dedicated to documenting the Books I a) am currently reading, b) want to read and c) have read.

Currently Reading

Want to Read

I’m still not sure. If possible I’d really like to finish the books that I began but then put down first before touching new books.

However, I have been told by a couple of my friends to read classics like:

• 1984
• Crime and Punishment
• Moby Dick
• War and Peace

But, I don’t feel inclined to them at the moment… later someday perhaps.

Currently I’m more interested in reading books like:

• Yuval Noah Harari

  • Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
  • Homo Deus
  • Nexus

• So Good They Cannot Ignore You by Cal Newport

• Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott

• 101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think by Brianna Wiest
