📚 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.

Tools are created to serve our own purposes and technology needs to add value to our lives without creating friction.People should not adapt to technology. Technology needs to adapt to people. We don't need to teach people how to interact with software but train software to interact with people. Software adoption relies on people learning how to navigate through a user interface. But this causes resistance and hinders productivity. We close the knowledge gap between humans and machines by allowing anybody to operate any software instantly. For Software providers that need to sell their product the ability to guide users in real time translates into higher engagement, activation, conversion, and retention. Companies that implement on-screen interactive guidance in the applications their staff needs to work with, solve all the logistic problems connected to staff training and see an increase in productivity that derives from a workforce which is fully operative in any software application from the get-go.
