📚 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👇

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.
What's next for Good Books?
📚 100s more recommendations every month 🙋♀️ Adding more interesting people (who would you like to see?) 📝 Writing some curated recommendation lists 📩 Planning a weekly newsletter with recommendations 🕵️♂️ Adding sources to book recommendations

“Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously; and some few are to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention.” -- Francis Bacon Mortimer Adler's How to Read a Book provides a decent framework for dealing with the variety of books out there.
