Kolor magiiAuthor: Terry Pratchett I read this as my first book by Terry Pratchett. A colleague recommended it to me, adding a precaution that if I were “a hardcore fantasy reader” - I would have to relax a bit, as this takes the whole fantasy genre to a new level. I quickly understood when I started reading - it felt like a joke! It was a satire of the entire fantasy genre, devoid of the usual heroism or pathos. The main character was a “lame duck”, pathetic at everything he touched. He didn’t even need to touch anything - his mere presence was enough to cause the world to collapse around him. It was hilarious, but a lot of fun to read 😄 ...

Przeciw bogomNiezwykłe dzieje ryzyka Author: Peter L. Bernstein Książka bardzo mi się spodobała. Została napisana przez jednego z Bernsteinów i odnosi się także do wkładu, jaki ta rodzina wniosła do matematyki i innych nauk.

Podróż ludzi KsięgiAuthor: Olga Tokarczuk I was really curious about this book. Olga Tokarczuk, a Polish writer, won the 2018 Nobel Prize in Literature, so I thought I should check out her work. “The Journey of the Book-People” is her debut novel, a historical fantasy set in 17th-century France. The story follows a motley crew - a mute boy, an abandoned courtesan, and a mysterious marquis - on a quest to find a legendary, all-powerful Book. Their journey through the Pyrenees mountains is filled with adventure and philosophical questions. ...

RUNY Spekulacyjne Rafała ZaorskiegoInny wymiar zarządzania kapitałem na rynku Forex Author: Barbara Triss I’ve read this book as a summary of Rafał’s way to trade. He’s a speculator, which aligns to my way of taking transactions. Book can be found in the internet. Book is chaotic and not that straightforward to follow, but there is some wisdom. There’s a good description of money management approach for speculation, to split your bank into 3~5% chunks that you manage separately - risking low, but with potential to grow. There are also things that I don’t like. He do not use Stop Losses, which IMO is a mistake. Of course Stop Loss could kick you out of the transaction in worst possible moment, but it helps to keep you to your assumption and plan. ...
