My #sundaysoapbox on recommendations is that I usually refrain from it, or prefer to encourage readers to explore and read widely. But I do recommend readers get into books from before 1990 because I feel the whole writing endeavor is just different then! Just watch my roulette!

But as far as popular general recommendations go:

Wislawa Szymborska poetry

JRR Tolkien Histories of Middle Earth (context)

Daniel Kahneman Thinking, Fast and Slow

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Awesome! Thank you for playing! 🙌🏻📚 2y

#WITMonth:. Reading Wistawa Szymborska's Poems New and Collected. This quote is from her poem titled "Classifieds". I also really loved "Buffo" and just about every poem in this collection.

I‘m not familiar with this author. Has anyone else read her work?

callielafleur I love her poetry! It's beautiful, and she has a wonderful sense of humor. Two of my favorites by her are "Dreams" and "Love At First Sight", but they're all really great. 6y
