Thousands of people trust me to bring them the absolute best book recommendations I can each week, but there’s only so much that I can fit into one email without overwhelming people!

So, what I’ve been doing is publishing the “long” version of those emails here, and sending the short version to my email newsletter subscribers, same as always.

If you’d like to sign up for my newsletter but haven’t yet, you can do so here, and I have even more book reviews, recommendations, and reading tips on my YouTube channel.

Today we’re taking a look at:

The Essential Bukowski, Selected and Edited by Abel Debritto

Chasing Excellence, by Ben Bergeron

Transcend, by Scott Barry Kaufman

Win Bigly, by Scott Adams

Great Expectations, by Charles Dickens

A short summary of each book is below, along with some of the best notes that I’ve personally taken from them.

And as always, the rest of my notes and summaries for the 1,000+ books that I’ve read are all available on my Patreon.

Enjoy!
