    I don’t really keep a list, but some here are some recent favorite reads:

    • Crime and Punishment
    • Master and Margarita
    • War and Peace
    • The Karamazov Brothers
    • The Lord of the Rings
    • Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
    • The Righteous Mind

    I would like to specifically point out “The Righteous Mind” by Jonathan Haidt. It was perhaps the biggest revelation about psychology, politics and human relations that I’ve ever had. It explained sooo much. Definitely worth reading.

    Most of these I read as part of the school program, but still ended up really loving them.

      • Crime and Punishment - liked it
      • Master and Margarita - started it but didn’t finish though I liked the start
      • War and Peace - I own a copy but never dared to start
      • The Karamazov Brothers - liked it though I got confused by all the names
      • Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy - read it (thought it was funny) - but noticed the cult only years later

      I recently enjoyed Agejew/Levi: Novel with Cocaine (fits with Bulgakow, even darker)
