Hi all. I have $100 in credit to use at my local used bookstore – I traded a bunch of crap that I had bought and never read or I had acquired somehow and end this interested in. I want to build a shelf of books that I can go to at any time, depending on what I’m feeling and have something exciting to pick from.
I haven’t been reading much over the past few years, but read crime and punishment last year, and really enjoyed it, which inspired my wanting to read more.
I would love suggestions on any of the surrounding areas: World War I, World War II, the Soviet union, science fiction, business, horror. i am a 24 year old finance dude. I am on the second foundation book right now, and one at dune to the shelf as well. Looking to get into more literature and works of fiction.
Happy to take any ideas. Thanks!
