Below, you can find my bookshelf. For each book, I've taken a handful of notes to surface the key themes of the book. They aren't meant to be comprehensive, but they are useful to jog my own memory when it comes to remembering the major takeaways of each.
I always love receiving book recommendations. If some book you've encountered has recently changed your world, please send it my way.
