Getting in the habit of reading again has changed my life for the better

A short history of nearly everything is great too.

Autobiographies are my one of my favorite genres so reading nonfiction isn’t really a problem but that first one sounds really interesting!

I stopped scrolling and watching TV and started reading again

My life got 100x better

I've tried so hard to read non foction and get incredibly bored very fast. So, I'm going to give the Teddy Roosevelt book a shot. I even love True Crime, but the books are no where near as fun as a podcast. So, thanks for the recommendations!

'River of Doubt' - I read this years ago. What an inspired recommendation!

[plainvoince]

myth of sisyphus by albert camus is pretty good for a starter philosophy book too, it started my interest of philosophy!

[steveblacktunes]

I bought the Teddy Roosevelt version of the river of doubt and it was incredible. I'm not sure how well the re written version is though

Antony beevor- fall of Berlin 1945
Marcus Aurelius- meditation
Christopher R browning- ordinary men
Fredrick downs- the killing zone

As a big nonfiction reader, these are all good picks, but I think a nod to some of the essential literary journalism works would be a great starter in the nonfiction world as well. It offers a bit more variety to the picks that would offer a different genre and voice in addition to the more historical or philosophical picks.

Didion, Woolf, or Talese are all essential reads for any nonfiction lover.

I really loved the book “unbroken” which is a about a former Olympic athlete who was taken war prisoner in Japan during ww2

I've been reading novels lately, but I'm gonna do some reading of non-fiction books for a change.

Incredible recommendations!! Letters from a Stoic! Hell yes.

[andrewcrowder]

Glad to see the Seneca recommendation.

[noobisevolving]

Letters from stoic is my life changer😊😊❤

[thatsTylerDurden]

I read that book deadly alliance by that one reporter. Had some slow parts to get through. The part about Rick Ross was good. And Hugo Spadafora. That was pretty grim.
