Andy Weir: Project Hail Mary

One of the best science fiction books I’ve read (and I haven’t read many :)) – Short, fluent, read with lots of exciting plot twists.

Ernest Hemingway: The Old Man and The Sea

Wonderful short book – recommended over and over and finally caved. Absolutely worth the read:

Boston Dynamics: ATLAS

I fondly remember some of my friends who work at Boston Dynamics. What an amazing accomplishment.

Tracy Kidder: The Soul of A New Machine

Fun read as well, even though it gets repetitive/boring after a while, and lacks some structure (jumps back and forth) – but certainly worth reading.

Neal Stephenson: Snow Crash

Excellent read even though the metaverse is pretty much here now 🙂

Jane Austen: Stolz und Vorurteil

Schönes Buch, nach Fountainhead etwas zu sehr voraussehbare Handlung 🙂

Ayn Rand: The Fountainhead

Probably the best book I’ve read so far.

The creator lives for his work. He needs no other men. His primary goal is within himself.
Howard Roark

This had been recommended to me several times, and while I tried to start a couple of times, I never made it past the first few pages. Then I picked it up (when I found it somewhere buried on my kindle) and without any knowledge of the author, the book,.. and no research done beforehand, read it. It’s amazing.
