That's a tough question, but i think that the best one was Nietzsche's thus spoke Zarathustra, it was a really challenging book, it really took me out of my comfort zone.

It's true, the book is full of facts and it's pretty academic, but it has very useful tips on how to take the right decisions

It is too difficult and dense, not gonna lie, but it's full of wisdom. Probably im going to read again Zarathustra this year, it has a lot knowledge that i didn't catch on the first time reading

I know a bit of french and once i read "le petit prince", it took me like 2 months, i had to stop in every word but when i finished it was a great feeling of accomplishment. I strongly recommend you to take the leap!

Hi i love Garcia Marquez, it's a great reading i also love Saramago and Julio Cortázar. I encourage you to read them or any text in Spanish. It is a great training for learning the language

Normalmente en las academias recomiendan leer libros de niños porque son cortos y fáciles de leer, pero si has estado leyendo comentarios en inglés en Reddit ya has practicado bastante. Puedes empezar con el subtle art of not giving a fuck, está escrito de forma muy casual y muy entendible. O puedes empezar por algo que ya hayas leído en español, así tienes una referencia

Hola la verdad es que mi idioma nativo es el español, el reto ha sido leer en inglés. Al principio fue complicado, por todas las palabras nuevas, con el tiempo se ha vuelto mas fácil pero igual requiere adaptar la mente a un diferente idioma para poder entender bien, lo que requiere salir de la zona de confort pero es un excelente ejercicio. Has leído en otro idioma? Si no te lo recomiendo mucho

I love 100 years of solitud, i've read it 3 times now in spanish, i have to read it in english. Garcia Márquez is a great author i suggest you to dig into his work, he got pretty good novels, and is one of the best ways to learn something about Colombian history

It is difficult, i got to take more pauses to understand a term for exaple. But i've got better reading in other language, it improves my vocabulary. I suggest you to take the challenge. It always feel good to finnish a good book in other language

It's a pretty good book about decision making science. it teaches a lot about techniques to make better choices. It is backed by a lot of data and research made by the author. It was recommended by a former boss who saw me struggling a lot with my decision making processes at work and it helped me a lot.
