2019 books


My "Read" list for 2019

Lets focus on one book and complete it shall we ?

The Three Body Problem - by Liu Cixin
Brand new mind bending Sci-Fi by a Chinese author. Explores current day earth but with interactions with some weird aliens.

In the Grip of the Jungles - by George Hogan Knowles
Life from the viewpoint of a Britisher from the period just before the Independence of India. Kind of like the Jim Corbett books, but a much more British viewpoint. The prose is very poetic.

Neuromancer  - by William Gibson
A classic which spawned the CyberPunk genre and heavily influenced movies like the Matrix. A bit on the heavy side of reading. Took a while to get through it.

Ram - by Amish 
You can give this one a miss
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck - by Mark Manson
This is a self help book whose focus is to get you to start thinking of things which matter and not spreading yourself on everything. Its ok as far as self help books go. I guess the novelty of the book is using the F-word a lot.
