I wanted to share some of the books that have genuinely shaped my perspective on life, work, and what it means to grow up in an ever-changing world. Whether you're just graduating, starting your first job, or figuring things out one step at a time, these are books I’ve read, loved, and often returned to.

You'll find a mix of practical guides, thought-provoking reads, and a few just-for-fun picks. I recommend them because they’ve helped me, and I think they might help you too.
