I consumed books and lecture series in 2021. Here is the list and what I thought of each book.

The complete works of H.P. Lovecraft
2/10 - Do not read. I finished it only so I could provide a review with complete information. It's a 2 instead of a 1 because it has historical value.

Designing Your Life
7/10 - I like the techniques proposed in this book, but it feels like the authors are trying to sell me on something throughout the book, which was a bit off-putting.

The Time Paradox
8/10 - This book has a very useful mental model, and it has helped me identify and artculate things that I like and dislike about myself and other people.

8/10 - This book spoke to me, and I found it both cathartic and inspiring to read. But it didn't pack the same punch as Your Music and People

Your Music and People by Derek Sivers
10/10 - This is now on my yearly reading list. This book is relevant to anyone who wants to be an entrepreneur or an artist of any sort. Super concise. Very articulate
