I'd love to hear of books you have picked up recently that are related to founders and startups.
And how do you rate them?
Also, on a side note, I'm thinking it would be useful to create and maintain an ongoing list of these recommendations. I know many exist across several discussion posts and also on Twitter.
Would this be useful?
$100 Startup - This book has amazing stories of Indie Makers all over the world, and gave me many ideas for my business.
Agreed! This actually made me believe that I can do it too.

I started reading a book called Quiet by Susan Cain. It is not specifically targeted towards founders/startups but the information has been a real eye opener for me. I think it can be an insightful read for anyone interested in the comparison between introverts/extroverts as well as anyone in a leadership role.
Yes, I read that a while back and really enjoyed it!
Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey A. Moore

Zero to One 9/10

Ultralearning by Scott H. Young. Havent even finished but already inspired me to finally learn to touch type
How to sell anything to anybody - Joe Girard
Permanent Record - Edward Snowden latest' book!
Just started reading it!
The Beekeeper's Handbook. It's a hobby that I plan to start here in Mexico with the intention of commercializing it over the next few years. I'm slowly trying to build up financial independence from having a remote salaried job in the US, and as much as I love SaaS projects, I've always wanted to own a business that's literally hands-on and involves outdoor time.
Oh, that's interesting. I love seeing how people are exploring non-digital things with the hope/ideas that it could be money generating.
