The best book on communication I have read. It made negotiation feel less like winning and more like learning how another person sees the situation.
Books
Not everything I read belongs here. These are the books that changed a habit, clarified an idea, or built a world I still remember.
Nonfiction
A memorable way to think about creating better customer experiences. The small, specific gesture often matters more than the expensive one.
One of the best books on personal finance because it treats money as a problem of behavior, time, and expectations rather than formulas alone.
Fiction
One of the best fantasy series I have read. The magic system is inventive, but the way the world keeps revealing a larger structure is what stayed with me.
The start of one of my favorite science-fiction series. It combines a lived-in future, political tension, and the pace of a mystery.
A great science thriller with a lot of technical information made accessible to the reader without losing the tension of the story.
An interesting science-fiction novel built around identity, memory, and a world that keeps changing as the central idea comes into focus.
