The book is about two sisters in France during World War II as they endure the challenges of survival and resist the German occupation. This book is worth reading because it’s a powerful story about courage, love, and resilience during one of history’s darkest times. It shows how ordinary people can do extraordinary things in the face of adversity. It’s a great book!

I love reading, and 2024 was another good year for me. Among the 25+ books I read this year, The Black Swan is the best I’ve read. It changed my perspective about managing risks. Extremes (or Black Swans) are ruling the world. But we tend to forget the silent majority and have a false perception of playing safe. I learned so many things, like why forecasting is useless. This book is so-so-so good! A must-read! 

I recommend this book because it perfectly captures the holiday spirit: comforting and authentic recipes that bring family and friends together around the table. Beyond the delicious dishes, this book offers a heartfelt journey through Italian traditions and life stories, making each page as warm as the meals it inspires.

This is an inspiring story about the quest for self. The story is about a businesswoman who, faced with a life-changing situation, embarks on an adventure in Nepal. This initiatory journey is a beautiful metaphor for the importance of living fully. The themes covered: fear of the unknown, the search for meaning, friendship can resonate with a majority of readers, regardless of their background.

I think it would be a great pick because it’s really easy to understand and gives practical steps for applying strategy to all areas of life, not just work. It helps break down big goals into actionable plans, which could be super useful for both personal development and career growth.

A small but growing number of people in many countries consistently avoid the news. They feel they do not have time for it, believe it is not worth the effort, find it irrelevant or emotionally draining, or do not trust the media, among other reasons. This groundbreaking book explains why and how so many people consume little or no news despite unprecedented abundance and ease of access. 

The authors interviewed the residents of the Japanese village with the highest percentage of 100-year-olds. They reveal tips and secrets that changed my perspective on happiness. It is a very easy read that provided me with practical tools to help me discover my own ikigai.

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a beautifully written, compelling story about creativity and friendship – how important and complicated it can be. As someone who isn’t a big gamer, I also found it fascinating to see how the gaming world was explored and intertwined into the narrative. Overall, a very wonderful read!
