The list may change as I discover more books.</p> <h2 id="sapiens-a-brief-history-of-humankind--yuval-noah-harari"><em>Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind</em> — Yuval Noah Harari</h2> <p>The first non-fiction book I ever read, and one I absolutely loved. Despite the criticism surrounding some of its claims and originality, it remains a favourite. Its sweeping perspective on humanity changed how I look at society and our place in it.</p> <h2 id="the-psychology-of-money--morgan-housel"><em>The Psychology of Money</em> — Morgan Housel</h2> <p>A collection of timeless lessons about money, human behaviour, and the psychology behind our financial decisions. A book worth revisiting.</p> <h2 id="a-short-history-of-nearly-everything--bill-bryson"><em>A Short History of Nearly Everything</em> — Bill Bryson</h2> <p>Bill Bryson is a wonderful storyteller. I bought this book on 1 February 2020 and started reading it during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Covering an extraordinary range of subjects, from the Big Bang to modern civilisation, it made a vast amount of knowledge accessible and enjoyable. Highly recommended.</p>
