The Comfort Crisis - Michael Easter
Part wilderness adventure, part scientific examination of the damages of our cushy modern existence (depression, health issues, etc.) this amazing book will have you rethinking your daily life.
“I love this book. It’s jam-packed with adventurous anecdotes and real-world, actionable advice that is really motivating. - Scott, Sr. Copy Lord

The Midnight Library - Matt Haig
After the death of her cat pushes Nora over the edge, she finds herself at the Midnight Library, where each book tells her the story of what her life could have been. “This charming, funny, inventive novel is about regret, the choices we make, and taking the bitter with the sweet.”
“One of my favorites, it’s funny but also deep and thoughtful.” -Sergio, Creative Producer
Build: An Unorthodox Guide To Making Things Worth Making - Tony Fadell
Written by one of the most influential tech professionals in history, Fadell was a key developer of a couple of minor inventions you may have heard of: the ipod, iphone, and Nest.

“This book is really good, very insightful and filled with great learnings, I recommend it to everyone.” - Dejan, Sr. Director of Growth
Three-Body Problem - Cixin Liu
The first book in a 3-part, mind-boggling alien and sci-fi adventure from one of the most successful science fiction masters in history.
