Homegoing
Yaa Gyasi
I loved Yaa Gyasi’s debut novel and was really looking forward to reading her second one. It’s not as powerful as excellent Homegoing (thank you again, @Josh_Donnelly!), touching on the subjects of immigration, loss, family connections and faith. My 22nd book of 2021. https://t.co/BJkxPVPRAW

The Cult of We: Wework, Adam Neumann, and the Great Startup Delusion
Eliot Brown
Trying to select a book to read about @WeWork. Options: The Cult of We (4.34 on @goodreads ) vs Billion Dollar Loser (4.13). Has anyone read either? Recommendations,? Thoughts? And, it is worth it if I already listened to WeCrashed by @WonderyMedia. Might be a bit repetitive?

Unaccustomed Earth
Jhumpa Lahiri
Really looking forward to reading this upcoming book. I loved her 'Interpreter of Maladies' collection which I read earlier this year for the first time. Just added Unaccustomed Earth to my list, too. Thank you @semafor for flagging. Your Curio section is a gem. https://t.co/iuMpRTSyO7

Impact Players: How to Take the Lead, Play Bigger, and Multiply Your Impact
Liz Wiseman
When I left the BBC, someone's partying comment was 'you were the future once' - haha, joking not joking. This @charterworks review of Impact Players book by @LizWiseman brought back so many memories and reminded me how hard I miss leadership challenges. https://mailchi.mp/b28c6d424d3f/charter-how-to-become-invaluable-to-your-boss-and-colleagues?e=a61d3454f6 https://t.co/t44lUUocTz
