@askgina.eth can you explain - what's tsundoku? - what the books are in this image - and if it's feasible to get through them within a month or two as a startup founder of a fast tech growing company.

You should read the Junger book for real, though. It’s quick and it’s so good. I learned a lot about his history that helped me understand how he’d achieved so much in his earlier books

You may have read already and its a bit cliche as a cult read but this was really memorable account of the Western Front in WWI (https://bookstore.dr.com.tr/urun/storm-of-steel-penguin-modern-classics/7532910). His "Paris Diaries" from WWII were also eminently readable.

Not completely related to the topic of these books, but have you read ‘Archipelago Gulag’ by Solzhenitsyn? It’s a tough read, too many pages of the worst humanity has to offer, but nonetheless a must read

Would love to hear your thoughts on ‘In my time of dying’. Dealing with a lot of loss this year but I’m not much of a book reader. That piqued my interest for sure tho.

I read one WWI doorstop (Keegan) in high school, figure I’m set for another decade at least If you like death & aging, you might enjoy Roger Angell’s “This Old Man” excerpted here: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/02/17/old-man-3

Thirty years war is a fascinating time period in history. If you enjoy the book, check out EU IV (if you want to have no more free time).

For the people that want to know about Tsundoku… Tsundoku is pretty much the act of acquiring books without the action or desire to actually read them, collecting dust. It derives from a play on words from 積んどく (Tsundoku) which means to load. To read a book is 読書 (Dokusho) As Japanese love to abbreviate or coin a term, it’s thought that they combined the two and created the term 積読(Tsundoku)
