    Title: "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind"

    Very interesting read if I do say so myself. A captivating exploration of the journey undertaken by Homo sapiens, spanning from the dawn of ancient humans to the contemporary era

    author: Yuval Noah Harari

    Since the movie just came out, I started with The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. I was surprised that the book was released four years ago! and I just found out about its existence.

    I love this book too and I’d recommend everyone to read it.

    My favourite lines “ People dream for years about finding love but are rarely satisfied when they find it. Some become anxious that their partner will leave; others feel that they have settled cheaply, and could have found someone bet-ter. And we all know people who manage to do both.” XD

    I’m currently reading “I know why the caged bird sings”, by Maya Angelou. Watched her interview and was impressed by how eloquent she was. I’m only half way through this book. She describes a lot of details of her childhood beautifully in the book. A bit flat in the first half, hopefully I’d find the second half of the book more interesting.

    Before diving back into the world of Eragon with Murtagh, I decided I'd read Paolini's other recent work, To Sleep in a Sea of Stars. I ended up binge reading the whole 800 page thing over the weekend! Apparently it won Goodread's Sci-Fi novel of the year in 2020. The premise is that it's ≈2300, and there are now intergalactic colonies that have figured out how to travel and explore way beyond the speed of light. Kira, a xenobiologist, comes across the second piece of alien technology ever found, and it's alive. The story follows her and everything that happens as a result of it bonding to her, quite literally. From spaceship battles to galactic exploration and life or death choices, this is captivating page turner. Apparently it's also slated to become a tv show, but I have a feeling the book will still be much better! I'm not much of an alien-life kind of sci-fi reader, but I definitely recommend this book to anyone who's a fan of the genre as a whole!

    Does fanfiction count? I recently read this fantastic Resident Evil fic called Here comes the Boogeyman, which takes place after the events of Resident Evil: Death Island (aka my favourite movie)

    I think I read more fanfiction than books nowadays, even though I have a whole stack of books I've been meaning to get around to reading. There's just something amazing about decently written fanfics and how they can be so satisfying when canon doesn't quite cut it.

    Currently I’m not reading anything but I have a whole pile of books I should read. I’m into the uplifting kind of books, like Brené Brown. The one that’s on the top of my pile is called “the mountain is you”
    We have a list of books at my job that are suggested reading, but I haven’t read them yet. Probably should HAHA

    Reading right now The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck currently and it's a pretty solid book.

    Another good one is The Untethered Soul. I'm a big spiritual guy so it's a good read for anyone interested in bettering themselves!

    I just started reading the book Please Tell Me written by Mike Omer. I got it based on a recommendation of other books I read. I am reading it via audio as I am at work so I can't carry my phone or a book.
