    No More Mr Nice Guy is the book I needed 10 years ago. Wow! This book is therapy for me. I am going to now read the parts I had highlighted and do all the exercises therein.

    I'm going into 'God Mode' in my reading. YouTube, NetFlix, and other distractions will take the back burner. I hope I can read a record 50 books by the end of this year.

    I've read Color of Magic. You can read Mort. It's hilarious.

    Is HEX really scary? :D Does Thomas Olde write mostly horror books? Do you recommend?

    Hi @Don80,

    I just started reading Thomas Olde Heuvelt's books, and I find his writing style similar to Stephen King's. There’s always something mysterious going on that gradually gets revealed to the reader. It's definitely scary and right up my alley. If you enjoy this genre, I highly recommend his work!

    I met Terry Pratchett a long time ago and even got his autograph. He was a really nice guy. Until now, I've only read his books in Dutch, but I've just started on the English versions. I'm really looking forward to diving into them!

    What can I say about "1984"? The message is important, but the book a horrible to read. It's not a casual read. I made myself complete it.
