20. You’re Not So Smart

    It’s a basic primer on logical fallacies and heuristics that we encounter pretty much every day. The ability to recognize these things in ourselves and others has been invaluable to me.

21. Resisting Throwaway Culture by Charles Camosy

22. “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People” by Covey

23. The Bible (Catholic Bible) is very interest it’s dramatic, poetic, deceiving, and shows the good and bad things of the world we live in.

24. [deleted]

25. Catch-22.

    If you don’t know, it’s a satire about the Army Air Corps during the tail end of WW2, but I find it super applicable to modern political and corporate climates

26. 1. The Bible
    2. How to Build a Fire: And Other Handy Things Your Grandfather Knew
    3. How to Sew a Button: And Other Nifty Things Your Grandmother Knew
    4. [How To Cook](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09C6P88VY?binding=kindle_edition&searchxofy=true&qid=1666742276&sr=1-30) Series. Get more and better cookbooks once you work through these.
    5. Common Sense by Thomas Payne

27. Starship Troopers.

    (not a fascist manifesto like everyone says but an interesting look at opposing ideologies and how they are formed by different groups of people)

    Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.

    (Holy shit most if us were fucked by our parents)

    All Quiet on the Western Front.

    (Very profound look at the horrors of war and the disconnect in what happens vs what civilians think)

28. Red Notice and Freezing Order, both by Bill Browder.

29. Great Expectation – Dickens

    Sea Wolf – Jack London
