You still have plenty of time to start reading  good and entertaining books . There are 5 books that beg you to skim through this week. there are plenty of books highly-anticipated releases on the way.

1- How emotions are made and the secret life of Brain

A new theory of how the brain constructs emotions that could revolutionize psychology, health care, the legal system and our understanding of the human mind.

Emotions feel automatic like uncontrollable reactions to things we think and experience. Scientists have long supported this assumption by claiming that emotions are hardwired in the body or the brain.However, the science of emotion is in the midst of a revolution on par with the discovery of relativity in physics and natural selection in biology and this paradigm shift has far-reaching implications for us all.

2- Educated by Tara Westover In this bestselling memoir ''Tara Westover'' reflects on her childhood as the youngest of seven children raised in a fundamentalist Mormon home in rural Idaho. Her dad believed in isolating the family from mainstream society including the health and education systems so she didn't set foot in a classroom until age 17.

"Tara's process of self-discovery is beautifully captured in 'Educated. It's the kind of book that I think everyone will enjoy no matter what genre you usually pick up.

3- "Bad Blood'' by John Carreyrou John Carreyrou is the reporter who in 2015, started exposing the scandal that eventually brought down the multibillion-dollar biotech start-up Theranos. In "Bad Blood", he details the rise and fall of the company and its founder Elizabeth Holmes.

The story is even crazier than we expected and found unable to put it down once we started.This book has everything elaborate scams, corporate intrigue, magazine cover stories, ruined family relationships and the demise of a company once valued at nearly $10 billion.

4- Origin Story by David Christian In Origin Story, he elegantly weaves evidence and insights from many scientific and historical disciplines into a single accessible historical narrative.

A captivating history of the universe from before the dawn of time through the far reaches of the distant future.

Most historians study the smallest slivers of time emphasizing specific dates inpiduals and documents. But what would it look like to study the whole of history from the big bang through the present day and even into the remote future?. How would looking at the full span of time change the way we perceive the universe, the earth, and our very existence?.

5- End of Loneliness by Benedict Wells

In an age when the double tap is so often the fastest path to fame there is something appealingly old-fashioned about a literary success story. This holds especially true for the tale of ”Benedict” Wells the 35-year-old German wunderkind who survived a downright Dickensian childhood before emerging as a cultural sensation in his native country.

”Wells” was only 6 when illness and financial troubles shattered his household forcing his parents to send their three children to state-run Bavarian boarding schools. This early experience informs ”Wells’s uber”personal new novel an international phenomenon that won the European Union Prize for literature.
