This year and the last, I have successfully read 52 books but one issue is that I chose books by random from listening to podcasts to taking recommendations from Reddit and Twitter.
2022 is going to be different, this time I have organized a list inspired by Balaji Srinivasan, Naval Ravikant, Tim Ferris, Chamath Palihapitiya, Jordan Peterson, and much more
