I enjoy reading but don’t want to read woke stuff. I’ve read “ Mine were of trouble” about a Nationalist fighting against the commies in the Spanish civil war. “Storm of Steel” about a WW1 German soldier. Currently reading “Blood Red Snow” about a German soldier on the Eastern Front. All those are nonfiction. I plan to read Cross of Iron, Imperium, and The Outlaws next. Also want to try to add some nonfiction and philosophy and pretty much everything. I want knowledge and wisdom, and want to be so well versed I can pass it on to my future kids.

What books do you recommend? And genre, fiction or nonfiction. Also, do you prefer print books or ebooks?

Knowledge is the one thing no one can take away.

Cliffnotes. Frankly the one I learned from the most, I learned for free, the best things in life are free, you just have to make a sacrifice. It doesn't have to be a superstitious ritual, it merely has to be consistent intent. That is a sacrifice, because you must focus on something at the expense of others.

Yeah what I do is add ones I want to read to a list and when I’m ready to start a new book I check the library first.

That is a contradictory statement. I understand what you are trying to say but payment and sacrifice are the same in this context.
