Here I’ll be keeping a list of books I’ve been enjoying or at least found valuable over the recent years, with comments sometimes. In no particular order.

The Years of Lyndon Johnson, Books 1-4 by Robert A. Caro
Just amazing. I distrust how poetic some of the characterizations feel, but I can’t wait for the last book.

The Power Broker by Robert A. Caro

One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Anna Karenina by Lev Tolstoy

Grand Strategies by Charles Hill

Lost in Math by Sabine Hossenfelder

The Stormlight Archive, Books 1-5 by Brandon Sanderson

The Bible

The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu
As great as everybody says it is.

The Dark Forest and Death’s End by Cixin Liu

Moral Mazes by Robert Jackall

Dear Reader by Michael Malice

Letters to a Young Contrarian by Christopher Hitchens

Collapse by Valdislav M. Zubok

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

A Fire Upon The Deep by Vernor Vinge

Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman

Gödel, Escher, Bach by Douglas Hofstadter
Did not finish it first time reading it. Meaning to go back to it for ages now, with what we learned since the Transformer. One day.

1984 by George Orwell

A History of Chinese Civilization by Jacques Gernet
A bit too dense for what I would have needed at that point. I am still looking for books to get a better grip on ancient and imperial China.

Unsong by Scott Alexander
