    I heard this an audiobook initially. Totally going to re-read it before Ben Horowitz publishes his book on culture. Highly recommended alongside Zero to One. CC: @nivo0o0

    The Brain

    The story of you

    The book is a great pick for someone looking to scratch the surface of neurology and unravel some of the mysteries of the brain and the way it shapes our world. The book delves into the science of who we are as intelligent, social, and conscientious beings in a fun and enlightening way. This is a companion book to a PBS series.

    The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck

    A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

    Ayush Mittal
    Ayush MittalHead Of Digital Communications · Written
    Read it more than half and a real change in perspective as it says on the front flap - "For decades we've been told positive thinking is the key to happy, rich life. But those days are over - Fuck Positivity, let's be honest; some things are fucked up and we have to live with it."

    The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

    From a fairy tale to the serious philosophical questions

    A lovely story. I don't get whole its meaning, or what people always remind about it. I just love the book because of the feeling whenever I read it.

    American Gods by Neil Gaiman

    Can't see many fictional books in this list, here is my pick. Gaiman is the best storyteller I've ever read, seriously. If you are looking for something that will help you to distract yourself from daily things, this book is the best choice.

    Ficciones

    I have always imagined Paradise will be a kind of library

    It happens with this one and also with any other J. L. Borges book, you can read them every year again and again and you will always find some new levels of perceptions that you missed the last time you read it.
