I'm reading "Where the Crawdad Sings" and "The Power of Habit" right now (I have one Audible and one paper book going at a time). I also keep a thread on twitter with stuff I've currently read with mini-reviews!
I couldn't put "Where the Crawdad Sings" down!
Listening to Ender's Game on Audible. It's pretty good; I'd recommend it.
Great book! Love it!
Can't go wrong with Orson Scott Card!! One of my fav sci-fi authors, I never tried audiobooks, I think this is going to be my first.
The Ender's series/branch/tree? is pretty vast, but I really enjoyed Ender's game, and Ender's Shadow.
I really liked the one with the piggies. Whatever one that is.
Speaker for the dead, the sequel to Ender's game.
I thought it was good also.
It is one of the best read audiobooks that I've ever listened too. It comes off as practically being acted out.
Just finished 'Hello, Startup' over the weekend; great book, I recommend it to everyone.
Starting 'The DevOps Handbook' this week.
Pragmatic Programmer is on my list to get to somewhere.
How is “The Go Programming Language”? I haven’t written any Go in over a year but I keep re-reconsidering trying it.
At this moment, I'm really enjoying The Pragmatic Programmer, probably one of the best tech books I've ever read.
Now The Go Programming Language is a really good book. You don't need to read it from start to end (In fact, Authors recommend the opposite in the book and invite you to jump around the chapters).
The thing I like the most about Go is their documentation, but I started to read this book because of his authors (I did read loooong time ago The C programming Language) and I'm glad I bought it, but if you only are in that phase of wanting to try again, maybe is not necessary spend money in a book, just the official docs can do the trick.
Potentially an unpopular opinion but still fascinating, I'm reading "The Case Against Education - Why the Education System Is a Waste of Time and Money" by Bryan Kaplan.
"The Colour of Magic" by Terry Pratchett. I'm very nearly at the end, and it's been good. Plenty of chuckles.
Good Omens in hopes to get it finished before watching the series.
Loved that one!
Re-listening to Deep Work and The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck.
Actually reading YDKJS - Scope & Closures from Kyle Simpson.
I'm currently reading the first two, but for the first time.
I am re-reading Deep Work and reading Digital Minimalism for the first time
I've recently read Digital minimalism and Essentialism :D They go very well hand in hand, one targeted "mainly" to your digital life and the other to your whole approach in life.
These are my next month reads. Really looking forward to them! Got more into those topics in the last couple month.
Big fan of “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck”
I've read this book travelling India last summer, must read !
Read both. Very good books.
+1 for The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck.
A bit related -- I liked Sarah Knight's The Life Changing Magic Of Not Giving A Fuck.
The Terra Ignota series by Ada Palmer. A series of four books with two currently released. I'm reading the third right now and like it quite much. It's an interesting take on Scifi with new social structures and such and not too far in the future.
I'm also reading The Business Value of Developer Relations by @mary_grace because I have to make a social media plan for a dev-rel position I want to start.
I can't wait to hear what you think about it! I'm always happy to answer additional questions :)
