Hey everyone, I'm new to this subreddit.
A little context- i am 20 year old guy, as a kid i used to read a lot of novels. I started out to improve my English but then continued for the fun of it. But now over the past few years i have completely lost that habit. Especially in the last one year my attention span, interest to pick up a book is diminished to dust.
But I have realised how important books are and I genuinely want to start it again.
So it'll be very helpful of y'all to drop your wisdom and recommendations in the comments.
I am not limiting myself to one particular genre, i want to expand my horizons in everyone one of them so feel free to suggest as per your likings.
But for now as per my needs (and a bit of personal inclination as well) i want to get suggestions of books which will help me build a solid base in economics and finance, politics, philosophy and science. (But feel free to suggest books of other genre too)
PS- Keep in mind that I'm starting from scratch so keep your recommendations to a level where I don't have to struggle a lot with too dense knowledge and niches.

The Alchemy of Us, How Humans and Matter Transformed One Another, by Ainissa Ramirez. This a very readable collection of stories about the way that inventions/technology changed the way we live, and how the way we lived changed inventions/ technology. This reads like stories, so should be easy/ achievable for you, nothing too technical. Hopefully you would enjoy it as much as I did.
