DAM Good Bookclub 2021

A bit earlier this time round, but here is a list of the non fiction books I got through this year. I didn't finish all, skimmed through quite a few because they were quite dense and made quite a lot of notes across most of them.

I am a member of the Rebel Book Club and LeaderBooks as well which helps to contribute to a nice variety of books I may have not thought about. I have consumed books through print, audio and kindle and one or two that lost me, I went and read book reviews and noted the top points. Incerto by Taleb is tough going man. And in small print. No one ever said you have to read a book from beginning to end right?

My favourite book was one I read early on called The Art of Gathering by Priya Parker. In order of the most recent to the earliest with links for those curious.
