7. “The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne

I think this book was written for some special kind of people 😒. I didn’t finish this book, to be honest. That much very boring and unrealistic🥴. Just reading this book for a hobby is ok, but be careful when making life decisions backed by the book. Unrealistic advice and recommendations. Specifically,  the “Law of Attraction” seems completely hoax to me😓. Be so careful before taking this book. You may know, books can make you a psycho too. This book is one of such kinds. Worst.🤢

8. “Atomic Habits” by James Clear

I just read half of the book. So I cannot rate it accordingly😄.  But I can give you an overview. This book is about small good habits which the author mentions as Atomic habits. His stake is that very little habits are influencing our life and by changing some of our little habits we can make ourselves improve exponentially in the long term✍️. Very good browse by author with tons of practical examples. Very elaborated view. I’ll try to update my rating after I finish the book.✊️

9. “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck” by Mark Manson

Before I start reading this book, I’ve done a browse on google to figure out some public reviews for this book (I usually do this)🤓.  But those review sites don’t seem to be appreciating the author😢. But the book was cool😎. Author tried to explain which are the situations you have to react to and which are the situations you are not. The characteristic which I personally like about the author is, he just tried to explain the reality to the reader. Explaining being negative is ok and a man cannot always be positive in every aspect of life😯.  No bullshits, no fake scenarios, just filled with pure legit arguments. This made me order his next book as a physical copy😈.

10. “Psychology of Money” by Morgan Housel

Human brain didn’t evolve to manage money. So, everyone’s behaviour towards money differs and that’s completely normal💀. One’s behaviour is fully influenced by their past and the environment they've been raised in. - author explains.👨‍🦰

Also explains various financial behaviours and the patience needed for investors. In a corner, the author included a story which revolves around a janitor who became a millionaire just by his healthy financial behaviours👨‍💼. Author usually explains everything with high technical terms & graphs. Definitely not beginner friendly. But you can read it simultaneously with some google searches😶‍🌫️.

11. “Clean Code” by Robert Cecil Martin

Honestly, not recommended for programming beginners🤖. Suitable for professional programmers🧑‍🎓. Also terms are just explained by Java programs. But for me as a beginner, I came to know how the IT industry works💻. You will fish many unfamiliar names in the beginning, but at the end everything becomes so familiar. Well informative about variable naming, ignoring nested programs, correct usages of comments, project management, responsibilities of a project manager, taking ownership on code, debugging, reading code, making code able to read and a lot of things that I cannot even remember right now🖥😅. Love the way the author makes everything related to real life problems and the humorous presentation. It’ll be more helpful to people related to the tech industry, especially the development site🧠.

12. “The Art of Invisibility” by Kevin Mitnick and Robert Vamosi

An ethical hacker and a cybersecurity strategist elaborate to you what the internet is, how to protect your anonymity in the internet, ways to protect your privacy online, how computer attacks have been made, how to escape from the government that is spying on you and tons of problems and smarty smarty solutions🧑‍💻. This is also not a beginner friendly book, you need a clear cut view of networking 🪔⌨️to understand the instances of the author. If you have an exposure to networking, then you are good to go. Authors have broken down many complex concepts to make us understand with his interesting professional hacker stories. 100% worth the read.📯🥳

That’s it 🥰. It may be a little boring, yes this is not an interesting topic at all.  Also don’t be mad at me for giving high scores to almost all the books. I cannot control myself from giving away the scores 😅. Because, like I said before, I do a little research before reading a book. I read summaries, reviews and sometimes listen to audiobooks. So, if the books seem boring or less attractive, I don’t read them 😏. This filtration brings only good books to my life. What I meant by “Good Books” is, the books that are suitable for me. 

I also have some books in bucketlist too. I’ll write a part 3 blog about all of them soon 😊

Thanks for reading, see you on the other side….
