Atlas Shrugged for sure, Fountainhead also. Anthem for a short read. 👍

The 61 hour Atlas Shrugged audiobook for sure.

Start with the Fountainhead. Draw your own conclusions after that.

Atlas Shrugged. I liked it, but it was a long read.

You can’t go wrong with any of those. It’s all a matter of time preference!

I loved the fountainhead. The virtue of selfishness is boring as fuck.

Anthem is short and very good — perfect place to start.

Atlas Shrugged is her magnum opus — it’s awesome, but looong.

We The Living is not about politics or economics (if you don’t like that), but it’s still heavily anti-communist (which is always a plus).

Virtue of Selfishness is a good read if you want an introduction to Objectivism (non-fiction).

I'd suggest Atlas Shrugged, but we're living in the movie, that might ruin the book for you. 🤣🤣

I am close to finishing Atlas Shrugged myself. Highly recommend, very thought-provoking storyline however her writing style can be a little frustrating.

Fountainhead

Over the years I have read most of her books. This is one I keep picking up and reading again and again.

Objectivism is a philosophical system named and developed by Russian-American writer and philosopher Ayn Rand. She described it as "the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute".

Rand first expressed Objectivism in her fiction, most notably The Fountainhead (1943) and Atlas Shrugged (1957), and later in non-fiction essays and books. Leonard Peikoff, a professional philosopher and Rand's designated intellectual heir,[3][4] later gave it a more formal structure. Peikoff characterizes Objectivism as a "closed system" insofar as its "fundamental principles" were set out by Rand and are not subject to change. However, he stated that "new implications, applications and integrations can always be discovered".

Objectivism's main tenets are that reality exists independently of consciousness, that human beings have direct contact with reality through sense perception (see direct and indirect realism), that one can attain objective knowledge from perception through the process of concept formation and inductive logic, that the proper moral purpose of one's life is the pursuit of one's own happiness (see rational egoism), that the only social system consistent with this morality is one that displays full respect for individual rights embodied in laissez-faire capitalism, and that the role of art in human life is to transform humans' metaphysical ideas by selective reproduction of reality into a physical form—a work of art—that one can comprehend and to which one can respond emotionally.

Academic philosophers have generally paid little attention to or dismissed Rand's philosophy, although a smaller number of academics do support it. Nonetheless, Objectivism has been a persistent influence among right-libertarians and American conservatives.The Objectivist movement, which Rand founded, attempts to spread her ideas to the public and in academic settings.

All of them! 🤷‍♂️

Atlas Shrugged was a great read 💜

Read rather Hans hoppe or Kant. Their epistemological analysis is way beyond ayn rand. Or is suggest to read both and decide for yourself...
