Read of the year: The Psychology of Money
Highlights
The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse
by Charlie Mackesy
Beautiful. This quiet and poetic little story never fails to spark joy as I have read and re-read it a few times this year. One of a growing list of gems I cant wait to share with my future children, nieces and nephews.
The Last Kingdom
by Bernard Cornwell
A captivating story of revenge, loyalty, fate, and family. I had previously watched the TV show, which helped me visualise the large cast of characters. Destiny is all.
The Psychology of Money
by Morgan Housel
This is the rare achievement of a book that is both an enjoyable and engaging story to read, as well as teaching me things about how the brain works that I've followed up with actions that will improve my life today and years down the line.
