1- All These Beautiful Strangers by Elizabeth Klehfoth
During the last day of summer, beautiful young wife Grace Fairchild disappeared from the family’s lake house without a trace, leaving behind her seven-year old daughter and so many unanswered questions.
2- Where the Crawdads Sing? by Delia Owens
Owens made her name as a wildlife scientist in her fiction debut, she sets a tale of crime and isolation in the North Carolina marshlands. Our crime columnist, Marilyn Stasio, calls it a painfully beautiful first novel that is at once a murder mystery, a coming of age narrative and a celebration of nature about an abandoned child who makes us open our own eyes to the secret wonders and dangers of her private world.
3-Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell
“Outliers” is an excellent book that investigates how many of the most successful people in the world from ”Bill Gates” to the ”Beatles”, as a consequence of variables within and out of their control, have such wild success.
This book illustrates how the most successful members of society are enormously lucky but the productive take away is successful people do an enormous amount of work.
If 10,000 hours makes one a master by that math working 80 hours a week for two and a half years or 60 hours a week for three years and three months will wildly change your proficiency and as a result your professional prospects. It reinforces the idea that there is no replacement for doing the work.
4- Road To Character by David Brooks
David Brooks, writer an columnist at the New York Times, he examines his life and the lives of Dwight Eisenhower, George Marshall and George Eliot among others, searching for ways people build character.
Brooks hopes his readers will come away pursuing “eulogy virtues” with the same vigor they pursue professional success and that they discover there is wisdom in history and literature that can not be found in academic journals.
Some disagree with portions of ”Brooks” conclusions and their arguments are not unfair but he includes interesting stories and a compelling framework for finding purpose in more than wealth and professional success.
