I'll go first.

The book i am currently reading is metro 2034, continuation of metro 2033, very interesting series of post apocalyptic books and i really recomend reading it

[DeKing]

The game is based on the books? Seems nice, I should take a look on it  

 

We had this topic about books, not sure if we still use it 

 

But in all case nice initiative  ( if you agree and you want, I'm sure a staff can merge your recent topic into the last one ) (For Staff, maybe it can be pinned as a principal topic too to see it more? )

"The Body Keeps The Score" by Bessel van der Kolk. While this book is meant for psychologists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, ... it is very interesting to read if one is interested in how childhood or adolescent trauma may affect the body (and the mind) in the long run. It has a few very interesting, though somewhat appalling statistics. Furthermore, it deepens one's appreciation for mental health and care thereof.

 

While the author has written it very well and easy-to-read, the subjects addressed are never easy to read regardless of the author's skill to inject humor and wordplay into his work. This book is definitely not the first book to read in terms of self-help if you yourself have been through a lot of ugly things in the past. The book is, after all, meant for the health care providers - not the health care seekers (although it has been marketed as such).

Well now... Currently started to read Le Voyage d'hiver by Amélie Nothomb. And recently, I did finish Le Petit Prince sent by someone special to me.

The ABC Murders by Agatha Christie

(crime book)

 

I finished this book a while ago. It wasn’t my first book by this author, for sure it isn’t her best, but it’s quite a nice book, you can read in one cooler evening for chill 😊

The Jack Reacher series (books) are pretty good. It's about a MP (miltary police) who uses his skills and deductive reasoning to track the bad guys down, essentially. 

[Apollonius]

The most relatable book I've had or will ever have. I honestly don't want to finish reading this, since that would mean I've reached the edge and there's nothing left for me.
