1. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

2. Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character)

3. The Loyal: The Story of Atwood and the Second Civil War (disclosure - my father wrote this book)

4. The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business

5. Grit

I thoroughly enjoyed all of these. It was interesting to see how Grit and The Power of Habit played off each other.

Would you care to add a few lines about Sapiens? Plan to read it. But only tentatively.

Sapiens opened my eyes to social constructs and human behavior and forced me to think about the vast timeline of humanity and how small our time is within it. Personally it provoked a re-visit to the philosophical questioning of life.

How would you read it tentatively? Just a couple of pages at a time and then stop?
