What kind of stuff are you interested in learning how to do? I can recommend books for tech stuff, but aside from that I only really read sci-fi and a little bit of history stuff.

I do like some basic sci Fi...

I'm just about finished with Leviathan Wakes audiobook, the first book of The Expanse series. I'm quite enjoying it!

Also almost done reading The Southern Reach Trilogy (only a few chapters to go on the last book). The movie Annihilation is based on the first book of the trilogy. Very weird, which is to be expected if you've seen the movie, but also really enjoying it.

And I've heard nothing but good things about Project Hail Mary, probably going to be my next one.
