What books did you read last month (January 2020)?

by•
I'm so inspired of previous discussion about favorite ways of learning new things. It shows that a lot of people here love reading books, so I decided to do this thread. Maybe if it became popular we could share what we've read every month?

Love this! For me it was The Lean Startup and started on The Dichotomy of Leadership
The Lean Startup is pretty much a Bible for all entrepreneurs these days - great for anyone looking to start their own business for the first time.
Everybody starting a startup should read 4 Steps To The Epiphany by Steve Blank Lean Startup grew out of Steve's lessons.
will give it a read! Thanks
Loving The Lean Startup. Definitely helped us with Lumio 🚀 Also, still loving Nir Eyal's Hooked. The updated version is great 👌
I read The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell at the last month. There were some really teaching points in it. I recommend it!
Great read, the best follow up book for tipping point is --- Contagious: Why Things Catch On Book by Jonah Berger
On My reading list for this year!!
I added the book to my list. Thank you Evan!
I just finished reading Dark Matter by Blake Crouch, it was a good read! An interesting look into the "do multiple dimensions/parallel universes exist" concept
wow, unexpected to see such books here. I've recently read Brief Answers to the Big Questions by Stephen Hawking.
My January list: Start with Why-Simon Sinek , Contagious: Why Things Catch On-Jonah Berger , Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts-Annie Duke. Best read - Thinking in bets, read by the author on Audible.
Educated by Tara Westover. Guarantee you can't put it down!
Put it on my reading list 📕
that's a great idea! I've read 'Secrets of Sand Hill Road' by S. Kupor and 'Hooked' by N. Eyal 🤓
How did find reading 'Hooked' ? I found it low on depth and basic prod dev hooks.
Great idea :) I've finished reading: Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams by M. Walker. I can only recommend it.
I started reading Around the world in 80 days as part of my launch of Literary Map that I finally did last friday, a new way to enjoy your books. Ah, the edition I am reading is the translation of William Butcher with a lot of explanatory notes that are so helpful to expand the story.
Interesting product and the great book! 🧡 Jules Verne
Great idea :) - Do The Work by Steven Pressfield. Short but very inspiring read. Talks about "The Resistance" and how to setup a better mindset and environment for being in the flow state. - The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. Very useful for me as I always find myself self-sabotaging when things are going well. The book explains why we do it and how to overcome this.
I read "Antifragile" by Nassim Taleb. It is not necessarily a product/business book, but it helps to look at things at a different angle and to better prepare for the unforeseen circumstances (which happens a lot when you develop a product).
