📚 Good Books is a curated collection of book recommendations from the world's most successful, influential and interesting people. We've spent 6 months analysing 15,000+ book recommendations and have handpicked the best to add to your reading list.

Let me know who you'd love book recommendations from in the comments and I'll add them to the list👇

This project started about 6-months ago when I started to keep track of all the books that I wanted to read and who recommended them. I then got (a little) obsessed with the project and ended up accumulating over 15,000 book recommendations from about 1,250 people...

I built Good Books to share these book recommendations with the world, organising them into simple categories and industries so it's easy to find your next read.

[Comp Bingo] What did you read last month and what can we learn from it?
Goodreads.com allows you to browse recent releases. They have lists of books and a bit of code that can link you from one book to other similar books. Here are some lists to get you started: Middle-grade books published in 2023 (has all genres but the fantasy ones are easy to pick out) YA books published in 2023 (has all genres but the fantasy ones are easy to pick out) Most anticipated adult fantasy in 2023.

Martha Wells, A.G. Riddle, and More Audiobooks from Recorded Books
Personally, I'll also recommend checking out what people say on Goodreads; I usually find the ratings a bit better on there than on Audible. Source: 11 months ago
If you read a lot of books how to remember what you read? How to remember all books you read?
You can use a site like goodreads.com to make a note of the ones you've read, and give them ratings. You might also keep a journal, so you have it for yourself, on paper. Source: 11 months ago
