Weekly Filetto: A Special Edition.
The best books that you didn't know you'll like
Dear everyone,
No weekly recommendations today, but the kickoff for something bigger. Filter bubble bursting book recommendations by interesting people: you.
I'm currently on holiday in Italy, gripped by a book recommended by a friend of mine. It got me thinking about this:
While technology has become fairly good at recommending books based on our interests, the best recommendations are still from people who might not know our exact interests, but who have been blown away by the book themselves.
So, I ask you to reply to this email with one or two books that have captivated you.
Fiction or non-fiction, old or recent, doesn't matter. I'll then compile all of them into a list and share it with you (please let me know when you don't want your name next to your submission).
Looking forward to your recommendations.
So long, David
