Despite having a sizeable reading list on Goodreads, I need another one. One that is active and represents a list from which I will actually pick books. I am unable to reduce my Goodreads list even though most books in it are not of immediate concern. Each book seems to be too important to discard.
๐ Reading right now
So, here’s my active list of books that I will actually read (and write about) in a few weeks!
- Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies, Nick Bostrom – I am reading this book as it was referenced in Meditations on Moloch.
- Kushiel’s Avatar, Jacqueline Carey – From the same article. I don’t read enough novels. I am trying to make an active effort to read more.
- Private Government: How Employers Rule Our Lives, Elizabeth Anderson – I read her The Imperative of Integration; on which I shall write soon. She was so clear about her argument in The Imperative that I didn’t have to read the entire book. I like authors that don’t waste people’s time, so I will try this one too. My motivation behind reading Private Government is that now that I am a full-time corporate worker for the very first time, I am more sensitive about my economic function as a human being. It is very important to understand whether am I an economic slave or a value-producing human being.
