What books are you reading in 2023?
Could be fiction or non-fiction. Curious to hear!
I should probably read more lol, but for now, as a busy student and running evoke-app.com, the best I can do is a textbook.
Though "Intercom: on marketing" seems pretty interesting.

@kunal_rajelli1 Read the lean startup before. To be honest, I feel like its contents do not need to be in a book. There is only one message, and it's: release your MVP first and iterate rather than getting the "perfect launch".
Hi Richard, I currently read 'the brain that changes itself' which is about neuroplasticity. My father had a stroke and I want to understand how I can help him...
@getinference Sounds like a good non-business read! Heard about neuroplasticity but never looked too much into it.
For every SF fun I can fully recommend "Gateway" Frederik Pohl - MASTERPIECE!
A very pleasantly written book. You'll read it quickly! I guarantee.
@kinga_gro Never heard of that one before! To be honest, it sounds like something I'd save in my goodreads and never touch lol
I'm still refining the list, but here are some books that I can't wait to read this year:
Classics
- Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
- The Idiot by Dostoevsky
- The Brothers Karamazov also by Dostoevsky
Business
- The Almanac of Naval Ravikant
- Venture Deals by Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson
Dev
- Hands-on Machine Learning With Scikit... by Aurlien Gron
Product
- Inspired by Marty Cagan
- Build by Tony Fadell
Textbooks
- Product Development and Management by Allan M. Anderson and Teresa Jurgens-Kowal
I'm just trying to read industry experts' articles this time around on various great platforms such as medium.com, dev.to, dzone.com, ycombinator.com/blog/, and many others.
Currently reading "Sell More with a Right-Brain Marketing Strategy" by James I. Bond as my non-fic, but also re-reading "The Gunslinger" by Stephen King for fun!
Currently reading "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason". This is an easy book to read for distraction. But I would highly recommend reading in the electronic version, then you can avoid many disapproving looks from the people around you. After all, this literature for the male gender is quite specific.
My list includes:
-Emma by Jane Austen
-Boss in Boots: The True Story Behind Kinky Boots: From Barton to Broadway by Steve Pateman.
-Goodbye to Berlin by Christopher Isherwood
-Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
-Bodas de Sangre by Federico García Lorca
Dune Messiah is a wild ride! I was hooked from the very first page. It picks up right where the first book, Dune, left off and follows Paul Atreides as he navigates his role as the messiah of Arrakis. The plot is full of intrigue and there are so many twists and turns that I couldn't predict what was going to happen next. The characters are also really well developed. If you're a fan of science fiction, give Dune Messiah a read – you won't be disappointed!
Geling Yan - Banquet Bug
Some non-fiction books about true crime.
Some books in Chinese
Feminist Mystique
Slingshot Design
