GREAT BOOKS Collection

I read books with a pencil in my hand and the books below are the ones that had the most highlights.

Great Books Collection is my collaborative work with my newsletter readers. Every month I receive a response with their recs back and here’s what come out of it.

I will update it monthly and notify you via my newsletter.
