Reading List
Here are some of the books I've read and recommend. They are listed in no particular order. Most of them are non-fiction. More fiction books are planned for the future to smooth out my natural bias towards technical literature.
I should also mention that I do not read books for relaxation, but rather for curiosity and engage with ideas. Therefore, I do not suggest them as a bedtime read, as they might keep you awake.
