Leviathan WakesJames S. A. Corey

The start of one of my favorite science-fiction series. It combines a lived-in future, political tension, and the pace of a mystery.

Unreasonable HospitalityWill Guidara
Read
A memorable way to think about creating better customer experiences. The small, specific gesture often matters more than the expensive one.
The SwarmFrank Schätzing
Read
A great science thriller with a lot of technical information made accessible to the reader without losing the tension of the story.
The FerrymanJustin Cronin
Read
An interesting science-fiction novel built around identity, memory, and a world that keeps changing as the central idea comes into focus.
Books that changed how I think
Mistborn, original trilogyBrandon Sanderson
Read
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.
Never Split the DifferenceChris Voss and Tahl Raz
Read
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.
The Psychology of MoneyMorgan Housel
Read
One of the best books on personal finance because it treats money as a problem of behavior, time, and expectations rather than formulas alone.
