My reading list

I read different book series and a specialist book at the same time. When choosing my next book, I always wanted an overview. This page was created out of this wish. Here you will find books from both the private sector (mainly fantasy and thrillers) and professional environments.

Review "Rapt: Attention and the Focused Life"

In Rapt, Winifred Gallagher demonstrates the crucial role our attention plays in achieving happiness and a high quality of life. Instead of being dictated by external factors, we can consciously choose what we focus on—and thus actively shape our lives. A book full of everyday insights that makes it clear: Those who control their attention shape their reality.
Is attention the second superpower? I claim that storytelling and attention are the most effective soft skills.

Review "Storyworthy"

Storytelling is more than an art—it's a superpower. In Storyworthy, Matthew Dicks demonstrates how anyone can craft captivating stories from everyday moments. The book inspired me so much that I adapted my routines to practice stories daily. Discover why this book is exciting not only for storytellers, but also for anyone who wants to communicate more clearly and authentically.

Jack Reacher - No Plan B (Book 27)

The latest volumes in the Jack Reacher series are getting weaker, and this novel unfortunately falls in line with them. Reacher operates under the radar where the law can't. Vigilantism is used against those who are bad. No matter how many antagonists appear, the solution is simple and brutal. Realism doesn't play a role (any more). The book belongs in the “read and forgotten” category.
