Self-Help & Books
“The Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels is a short book highlighting what was at the time of 1848 the fight of the laboring (proletariat) class from the wealthy and exploitive class (the bourgeoisie.)
I recommend this read – more so – as an understanding of the socio-historical context of its time of publishing.
“The Year of Magical Thinking” by Joan Didion is perfect for readers that enjoy reading autobiographies. If you love heart felt and real-life stories about grief, you should definitely pick this book up!
“Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now” by Jaron Lanier is a great book to read if you’re fascinated by technology and social media. It’s an even greater read if you’re considering taking a social media break.
Furthermore, if you want to know my own take and my in-depth summary of this book, you can read this post here from my educational blog. It talks about the 6 Big Mental Health Reasons to Take A Social Media Break using Lanier’s ideas.
If you’re an aspiring writer (or even have an interest in writing), you will greatly benefit from reading “No Plot? No Problem!” by Chris Baty! It’s A Low-stress, High-velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days.
