The Terror
Dan Simmons
I have so few book reccos these days because I read old, old books from the library. But I have not put down Dan Simmons "The Terror" the whole day. Absolutely riveting novel about Arctic exploration based on true events with a soupcon of supernatural.

Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup
John Carreyrou
Feel like if SBF had bothered to read the cautionary "Bad Blood" by John Carreyrou-or even listened to the podcast- he might not be filing for Chapter 11 right now. https://t.co/4uAVRhZQvO

The Lehman Trilogy
Ben Power
Londoners, totally recommend going to see Sam Mendes' incredible " The Lehman Trilogy" about the rise and fall of Lehman Brothers. Utterly brilliant direction, script, acting, sets. Modern theatre, so cheap seats still have good views.

Wolf Hall
Hilary Mantel
Hilary Mantel was truly such a great writer, thinker, woman, anti-royalist. Wolf Hall may be the most deserving Booker winner ever, and Hilary the most deserving double winner. Rest in power.
