Mohammed Amin (Bradford)

I always enjoyed reading when I was growing up, one of the first books I read was in my teens which was the autobiography of Malcolm X which had a profound influence on my thinking and opened up my young and impressionable mind to the injustice and cruelty of racism and oppression of black people in America. I remember having a dictionary on hand as I didn't understand some of the meanings of the words and also ensuring I could use some of these concepts and words to ask adults critical questions aswell as impress my friends with my expanded vocabulary. I have a wide selection of books at home which I've purchased throughout the years by looking at reviews aswell as previewing the book to check it piqued my interest. Since the advent of the Internet, social media, satellite TV and smartphones I don't read anymore and when I do read I do it without purpose or concentration, I want to discover my love of reading and meet like minded people who I can share my passion with and develop my understanding and appreciation of knowledge, language and the human condition.

48 laws of power

by Robert Greene | Buy this book

Excellent book that details how humans have used and misused power throughout history, you will be able to pick upon some of the 48 laws that you have used to dominate others and other laws which people have used to exploit you for their self interest. The book draws upon various true stories that illustrate the use of the law aswell as the cost if you ignore the reality of the law. There is a summary at the end of each chapter aswell as the authors insight of reversals of the law (situations where you shouldn't observe the law as it is counterproductive to your self interest) There are a good number of quotes from famous figures in history and across cultures aswell that entertains and informs you. Even if you are not interested in gaining power, there are alot of tools you can use to guard yourself from situations and people who will manipulate you and take advantage for their own ends.

The Dead Romantics

by Ashley Poston! | Buy this book

This is one of my favourite books from 2023, I loved the story and the little subtle hints of magic throughout. Ashley’s writing is quite nostalgic, and brings backs memories as I flick through the pages!

Lie With Me

by Philippe Besson | Buy this book

For me this book is life changing. It follows Philippe, a wannabe writer in a small town, who encounters Thomas, one of the popular boys, and through out the course of the school year they have a life altering romance. Love this book more than words can describe.
