1 个月Alejandra, what a great reading list! I think I am going to work through it this year. Can you guide me as to which one I should start with? I read "Mastery" from Robert Green and loved it... I wanted to start rereading right away because it was packed with quotes, biographies, and examples that resonated with me. Other memorable books for me this year: Seda by Alessandro Baricco (just beautiful), Los Sin Pasado by Simon Guevara, The Source by Tara Swart, Tuesdays with Morries (my second time).
