Sections
In the past few years, I mostly read self help and although that’s what I needed then, I started feeling as though I was getting diminishing returns from them so I set my goal this year was to broaden my reading leading to my most fascinating year of reading so far.
Another goal of mine was to inject some diversity in terms of authors, having noticed that most of my read books had been written by the typical cis-gendered white male.
Philosophy Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations, The Discourses of Epictetus, Seneca, …
Memoires Michelle Obama - Becoming, Educated - Tara Westover, Can’t Hurt Me - David Goggins
Most importantly, I’ve read my very first fiction book (yes, at 32 years of age :laugh:)
It was 1984 by George Orwell. Very interesting book, yet It was a pretty novel experience and sort of awkward at times because of how I’m used to processing books.
