I used to like reading books on philosophy, but now I seem to be particularly interested in history and literature. First of all, reading history books can let us see the contingency and inevitability of the rise and fall of each dynasty, and the hidden characteristics of each historical figure can give us inspiration, learn from history and guard against arrogance and rashness. Secondly, the German poet Goethe said: "Reading a good book is equivalent to talking to a noble person." A really good literary book will make you completely divorced from the real world, walk in slowly, and meet people with different personalities. Literature will make us approachable and elegant. Of course, it is also inseparable from some celebrity biographies. Although everyone's life is unrepeatable, no matter success or failure. Reading celebrities' own books, we can find out how they advanced from ordinary people to celebrities, what are the general characteristics of each person, and learn their coping modes in the face of failure and frustration.
During these four months, I began to write biographies of people, such as Bai Shuo, accidental meeting, Ah Xun, Buffett and unprovoked joy. History books "The Prosperous Age of Hunger", "When the Human Stars Shined" and "BBC Time History"; Literary books such as Memoirs of Literature, Bookstore on the Island, Fortress Besieged, The Meaning of Living, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Outsider, The Gadfly, etc. Each book gives different inspiration and insights, but there are always a few that people can't forget.

To Kill a Mockingbird?
? Rating:? 9.5
To Kill a Mockingbird won the Pulitzer Prize 196 1 year. It is also the book with the highest borrowing rate in American libraries and one of the favorite novels of British teenagers. At the same time, the film adapted from this novel also won three awards in the 25th Academy Awards.
? My feeling after reading this book is that it can be a model for parents' education. Although this book is about the pain, confusion, sadness and anger of three children growing up, I only love Attix, a father who can understand them from the perspective of children. The best education should be to set an example. Attucks's attitude towards blacks and eccentric neighbors gives children the most powerful example. Of course, there are many golden sentences in it. Let me share my favorite sentence:
"Courage is knowing that you are doomed to lose before you start, but no matter what happens, you still do it without hesitation and stick to it." ? ?

The road to happiness?
Rating:? nine
Nobel Prize in Literature laureate Russell is the most influential philosopher and social activist in the West. Russell's point of view: misfortune is largely due to a wrong world view; And happiness is a kind of human right, and it is something that people should pursue. In The Road to Happiness, Russell summed up some reasonable opinions confirmed by his own experience and observation, telling readers where the reasons for our unhappiness lie and how to be happier.
Compared with other similar philosophy books, I think this book is more practical. It is not simple reasoning, but proceeding from reality to guide us how to find happiness. I used to think that I should start with my inner practical exploration and constantly correct my mistakes and thoughts. But Russell tells us that true happiness should be to develop one's enthusiasm and interest, pay more attention to the outside world and find one's interest, instead of pointing the center and finger at oneself.
"What we need is not self-control, but that kind of external concern; Anyone who only pursues his own virtue can do what he can with conscious self-denial, which can be done naturally in a person who cares about the outside world. "

? Unfair happiness?
Rating:? 8.5
I don't know why the douban score is so low. Everyone has different feelings about this book. Knowing Yu Xiuhua started with the title of a poet with cerebral palsy. "Going to see you halfway through China" made her a top female poet in China. I like her books because she can find the beauty of nature in the trivial things of daily life. Through her gorgeous imagination, she can make readers feel the pure soul, tenacious willpower and rich inner world in nature.
Reading Yu Xiuhua's words warms my heart.
"The so-called enjoyment is to accept the mediocrity day after day and turn these slightly toxic days into nectar in an empty glass."
"Our arrogance is more about giving ourselves courage and bluffing.

The road to financial freedom?
? Rating:? 8.5
Bodo? Schaefer (Hakata School? Fer) is a top financial master in Germany and is known as "Buffett in Europe". This book guides readers from all walks of life to change their financial management concepts by introducing the four pillars of getting rich: dreams, goals, values and strategies. Different from other financial books, this book tells us how to broaden our thinking concepts and values and how to broaden our controllable fields in the workplace. The latter part tells us the attitude towards wealth and how to open sources and reduce expenditure from a philosophical point of view. So I think this is a multi-dimensional practical guide book, which gives us some enlightenment from the workplace, philosophy, finance and other aspects.

The heyday of hunger?
Rating:? 8.3
I feel that this is a popular and simple popular science book, suitable for novices interested in history. We recommend this book because we can see a relatively plump Qianlong, how some of his ways of governing the country led to the emergence and decline of the prosperous times, and the evil of "rule by man" was vividly reflected in the prosperous times of Qianlong, which brought inevitability in contingency. What moved me even more was Zhang, whose idea of aiding students is worth learning.
"Don't be a politician, be a big secretary. Don't be a thinker, just an executor. " (Zhang)
Read more, reading is powerful. It will make people immersed in words and feel real joy.
