COVID finally had me pick these books up. Let me save you some* time

One sentence review

Beyond good and Evil | Nietzsche — One full night of Pondering

Crime and Punishment | Dostoevsky — One full night of mindful appreciations

Brave New World | Huxley — One full night of brooding

Letters from a self made merchant to his son | Lorimer — One full night of gratitude

While I 100% recommend reading these books by yourselves, I understand not everyone would have enough bandwidth or headspace or time to allocate to it.

I have made a few notes on these reads and thought I would help save anyone who’s interested a little time. I have also tried to keep the notes/research as extensive and inclusive as possible so that its not just another short summary which dilutes the book’s message. If an adequate amount of people are interested in this, I’ll add notes to a few other books as well — genealogy of morales, the birth of tragedy, etc.
