E40: What the H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks Books


Listen Later

If you are reading this, then chances are you love reading (and writing!). You make time in your busy life to read and enjoy the benefits.

But why?

In today’s episode, we think about WHY we read. For me, it comes down to one simple theme:

I read to grow.

I purposefully grow my reading life so my actual life can grow, too, and so I’m sharing three books that made me literally stop and yell to the air: What the H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks is going on?

Now, I’m not talking about what’s going on with the plot, I’m talking about what I learned about the world as a result of reading these books.

I’m still reeling from them and therefore, you need to read them, too.

Today, I’m sharing three books (and a bunch more from my Patreon community) that will stop you in your tracks and question everything you know about how the world worked and still does.

You'll find the show notes for this episode here.
