Books are one of the most important sources of growth. Books are a way to experience more than one life. Books are classic way to achieve wisdom. Books are inevitable engine of progress.

This page is a continuously updated source of the best read books. As with many things, I do not like to recommend anything of what I am not sure. Would be great, if you would make your comments and recommend, how to update my list of the top books. To make the reading easier, books are sorted by categories.

Certainly one of the best ways to find the top book lists and read detailed reviews of each book is to use goodreads.com. However, we all like personalisation and we tend to follow recommendations people we know best. Here you are my list.
