Hello everyone!

I'm looking for two book recommendations:

  1. an "entry" book into SciFi. Something that is easy readable. I prefer sth. "positive" or utopian.
  2. A similar book like "48 rules of power" but without the Machiavellian touch and the religious touch of "How to win Friends and Influence People". Maybe there is something more "universal" available on how to connect to people on a respectful level.

  1. The Long Way to A Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. Very easy to get into.

  2. Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High is my go to. However there are so many other books that teach you how to connect with others.
