--- title: 'Books' --- I've decided to start reading books again. I loved reading books as a kid, but after the inception of youtube, netflix etc I basically stopped reading. Sure, I've read some books here and there over the last 15-20 years. But, I think I can count them on one hand. So, my goal for 2025 is to read more books instead of watching tv-shows, youtube etc. ## Current book I have heard a lot about Georg Orwell's "1984" and how it kinda depicts the world that we are about to become, even tho it was writted as fiction in 1949. - 1984, by Georg Orwell ## Upcomming I found out that Bill Gates read a lot of books (around 50 a year) and he has this [article](https://www.gatesnotes.com/books/books-home-topic/reader/holiday-books-2024) about some interessting books for the christmas holiday of 2024. So I'm basically using this an an inspiration for my starting point. - The Anxious Generation, by Jonathan Haidt - Engineering in Plain Sight, by Grady Hillhouse - The Coming Wave, by Mustafa Suleyman
