Any interest in Andy Weir? He wrote The Martian, Artemis, and his new one Project Hail Mary might be the best.

I love this book. Really good audiobook where the author reads it.

Did anyone read Midnight Library? Would you recommend?

Ooh I actually really liked The Midnight Library, thought it was a unique concept that really resonated with me as a chronic “what if” thinker

What genre?

It's pretty good. He is clearly VERY proud of himself

If you’re looking for some novels/fiction, some of my recent favorites from a variety of genres:

- The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
- Firefly Lane
- Exit West (I believe this is going to become a movie and the Obama’s are involved in the project somehow)
- We Were the Lucky Ones
- The Four Winds
- The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
- The entire Throne of Glass series (new adult fantasy, so good)

Loved the four winds!

Reckless Girls – Rachel Hawkins
Where the Crawdads Sing – Delia Owens
The Hunting Party – Lucy Foley
American Dirt – Jeanine Cummins
The Great Alone – Kristen Hannah - this was really good too, about living in Alaska
Razorblade Tears – S.A. Crosby

Is hunting party better than the guest list?

Need some career advice. I did a business degree in undergrad, mostly because I didn’t think I could do something more technical. Now, 6 years after graduating, I have always been in functional roles (business analyst, pmo). I would really like to get into software development, but is it too late? I am considering going back to school for this, either getting a masters or going to a bootcamp. Any recommendations on which one? I’m in industry now and I have more free time and would like to use it
