Deep Work by Cal Newport

The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman

I remember all of the Michael Lewis books were pretty good. I usually prefer the ones where the author is the narrator, Tony Robbins, Kevin Hart, etc.

But came here just to share that you should get the Libby app. Free audiobooks forever!

Check out born a crime by trevor noah. narrated by trevor.

Fantasy fiction - mistborn and wheel of time if you can get through a mammoth 14 book series.

I’m interviewing with the company although I have offer signed with another (going though background checks, so didn’t wanna stop before knowing 100%).
