Journey of Books
A wise man once said “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you will go. This section gives me an opportunity to share my reading journey.
The power of knowledge is enrolled in the pages of books. My goal is to complete hundreds of carefully curated books within the next decade. Fellow readers of the world, join me as we unravel the mysteries of this world within the global ‘readerscape.’ We share insights, perspectives, and details about the world around us. Do not get tired just yet, we‘ve got miles to ply together in this conquest. Brighten your day with motivational quotes, and great summaries. Would you like to read with me? I got you covered! There are electronic, and, or pdf copies of books readily available for your digest. I have also included my personal notes for your digest.
