You have no idea 😂
I'm terrible for reading too many things at once.. in the last 6 months I think I've only finished the above two books! But I'm also reading:
Maybe this is why I have so many unfinished projects 🤔
I soooo wanna read the Mortal Engines sometime.
It's good! Slightly different to the movie if you've seen that :)
Wow 😮
Hey I'll start WWZ this month :) did you like The Ballad of... ?
I did!! The ending felt very rushed, and some parts in the middle dragged a bit, but overall it was entertaining :) "The Hunger Games" (i.e. book 1) is the best in the series by far.
Nice I like Peter F Drucker cause he seems to me, more of the most sensible business professors that i came across. That doesn't throw you lots of weird business terms to you but draws from a good amount of stories and examples to show you how it is adopted like "The purpose of a business is to create a customer"
Back to my last 3 books I had completed:
1) Moscow Rules - How US won the code war by the CIA agents and technical officers stationed in Moscow by following these rules. Much like Gibson rules if you had watched NCIS through trial by fire in life or death situations.
2) The Phoenix Project - The organisation transformation story about Parts Unlimited on how they adopted a DevOps approach for delivering value to their customers and stakeholders.
3) The Obesity Code - Talks about the actual case studies and how we approach in losing weight. What we should adopt for our own lifestyle instead of just going on a diet & exercising.
The Phoenix Project - This gave me an excuse to read at work. :D
Hahaha yup you do
Gardens of Moon - Steven Erikson
I liked this a lot. A wonderful cast of characters, full of epic moments, lots of intrigue and a pretty good setup to the rest of the series.
Unlike what some reviews suggested, I was pretty hooked very early on in the book and didn't really have any complaints about there writing.
For me at least, the plot had the right amount of delicious elements - intrigue, powerful characters i.e. Gods and Demigods, a never ending war, battle worn soldiers with names like Whiskeyjack and Kalam, an undead race, dragons. What else can I ask for?
Ghachar Ghochar by Vivkek Shanbag
It is a dark comedy based around a tight-knit family. As I was reading this book while trying to pretend to work from home, I grew increasingly uncomfortable more and more I got into the story.
Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind by V.S. Ramachandran and Sandra Blakeslee
Fascinating read. It's full of real case studies of people suffering from really peculiar conditions and the authors do a wonderful job in distilling complex concepts into a very accessible book. To be honest I was out of depth in majority of the last chapter where discussions of consciousness, the self and free will were being explained. But nevertheless it did enough to quench my long standing curiosity of the workings of human brain.
erikson is a genius.
Indeed. I am looking forward to the rest of the series. Thankfully it is completed and I don't have to wait.
Eukuan nin matshi-manitu innushkueu : Je suis une maudite Sauvagesse - An Antane Capesh: a book about a native american woman telling how white settlers robbed their lands and stole everything.
The Soul of a New Machine - Tracy Kidder: In the 70' Kidder witnessed engineers at Data General design and build a new 32-bit minicomputer in just one year. It describes this tumultuous adventure.
Becoming - Michelle Obama: Biography of the first black FLOTUS. It describes her life and her adventures up to the point of entering office with Barack Obama.
I also have a Goodreads account, feel free to add me.

the effective executive,... for the second time.my favorit quote is:
The greatest impact of the computer lies in its limitations, which will force us increasingly to make decisions, and above all, force middle managers to change from operators into executives and decision makersinstant turnaround!by Harry Paukl and Ross ReckThis is an absolute recommation, not only to learn how to do leadership a little better, but also to understand what organization you want to work for.
A bunch of tiny books on accounting,, book keepung, economic numbers, controlling instruments.
Burning Chrome by William Gibson
"Fast moving short stories. Very engrossing book. All but two of the stories were very good. As prelude to Neuromancer, it made me want to read the next book as soon as possible."
Mexico Set by Len Deighton
"Really took off as compared to the first book. Bernard is out on a island after what happened with his wife. Some really scene that get you going. I'm not jumping into the third book just yet. "
Berlin Game by Len Deighton
"A lot of set-up. It's a really good book with a couple of good scene's. Thing's start to come together at the end to make you wanna read Mexico Set."
Fiction ?
I'm trying to improve my French reading, so I'm going through the Harry Potter series in French and taking breaks between each one by reading something in English. I never saw the movies or read past the 5th book in English, so I'm curious to see how it ends!

What an insightful lineup of reads! Your choices reflect a diverse range of knowledge and wisdom. "Indistractable" seems like a treasure trove of practical advice, especially with the added workbook for actionable steps. Peter F. Drucker's "The Effective Executive" holds timeless truths, emphasizing the essence of self-management in effective leadership. As for "Principles: Life and Work," it's fantastic that it lived up to the hype, proving to be a timeless classic. Your succinct summaries and genuine enthusiasm make me eager to dive into these titles. Thanks for the recommendations, and I'll definitely be checking out the article by Utkarsh for some guidance on my next literary adventure! Happy reading! eComFist
