I read some free kindle books back in the day, that probably only a few thousand other people have read, so very plausibly no one on Lemmy has ready.

So, what books have you enjoyed that you feel confident no one else on Lemmy has read?

Money: The True Story of a Made-Up Thing. It's a very easy read all about how weird currency is. My only gripe is that Jacob Goldstein often leaves out too much detail of historical accounts in favor of keeping the book light and accessible.

Looks rather popular with how many reviews it has, and there are like lots of news stories on it.

But it looks really fun so I may grab it anyway!
