off the top of my head:

1. Uniquely Rika

2. How to Talk So Kids Will Listen

3. Eyes of God (Bronze Knight series)

4. Heart of Darkness

5. Diary of a Psychosis

That's an eclectic list🤔. The last one peaks my interest, in particular.

omg it's soooo good

extremely validating in a way

definitely check it out

"Extremely validating"?

yeah

to live through 2020 (and 2021), remembering all the crazy stuff that happened—to like, experience some of that crazy stuff and now so many ppl just kinda forget about it.

it was an insane time.

"Anne of Green Gables" (series)

"A Wrinkle in Time" (series)

"Outlander" (series)

"Harry Potter" (series)

"Roots" and "Queen"

Those are the books I've most-enjoyed reading, if I'm being unpretentious.

I guess, that's more like 20 books, but they're all series.

Be as pretentious as you want😁

1. The Hobbit

2. The Lord of the Rings

3. Mistborn series

4. The Philokalia

5. Jamestown Prayer book

1. Eon

2. Dune

3. The Painted Bird

4. Island

5. Johannes Cabal the Necromancer

Dune was great. Might read No. 5.

1. Catch22

2. Invitation to the game

3. Zombie survival handbook

4. The Selfish Gene

5. Hatchet

The third is meant to be a joke, right😁?

The Selfish Gene definitely seems worth checking out.

1. Dream of the Cosmos

2. Becoming Supernatural

3. The Speech of the Grail

4. The Power of Now

5. The Kybalion

The Doors of Perception

Petmacultute: a designers manual

Endurance: Shackleton's incredible voyage

Gaia's Garden (2nd edition)

Sepp Holzer's Permaculture

I have a copy of The Doors of Perception. Definitely worth a re-read. The last two could be very helpful, as well😁! Thanks!

I had to read it when someone told me the Doors got their name from this book.

Endurance is the greatest adventure story I have ever read. How these guys survived for more than a year and made it back to civilization without their ship is incredible. Makes me realize things in my life aren't too bad.

The last two are pretty easy reads, not too technical.

Lol reading that book really brought out some nostalgia, mainly from my years dropping acid in college.

I feel like the last two would help me think of ideas to make my garden more aesthetically pleasing to look at.

For that, I would go with gaia's garden 🍻

Sepp holzer's permaculture is more for farm scale stuff

That's hard. I have so many favorites, what I list would probably change every time you ask and lean heavily towards what I am reading or have recently read, but I'll type down the first couple that come to mind:

Bible

Lord of the Rings

The Dragon's Prophecy

The Sovereignty of God

Creation Basic's and Beyond

The Global Flood.

The last two I use frequently as references and have read more than once. Sorry, I couldn't reduce to 5.

In no particular order:

Zero to One

Great Expectations

Animal Farm

The Network State

A Lodging of Wayfaring Men
