Does anybody have any book recommendations? Wanna do a big order and preferably on topics right now; healthcare, disease prevention and European politics. Preferably only non-fiction

Not necessarily on topic, but this is the best non-fiction book I have read in the last decade https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005GPSLHI/ (disregard the title)

If you want to read about a world more fucked than the current one, Three Body Problem is an amazing trilogy https://www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B00YUQP6AE/ … (Hard sci-fi counts as non-fiction in my book)

I want to learn things when I read books, so also mostly read non-fiction. Nevertheless, I found these fiction books to be very goodpic.twitter.com/hfzY1g7PEm

I myself struggle reading fiction, also read only non fiction for the exact same reason. Will give it a try though! Got all of March now to read haha

So historical fiction and hard science fiction really scratch that itch for me. Masters of Rome is a bit of an investment, but absolutely worth it if you have some interest in Roman history. Also everything by Ken Follett, starting with: https://www.amazon.com/Pillars-Earth-Kingsbridge-Book-ebook/dp/B003TO5GXU …
