Ready Player One - Review and summary
Too Long; Didn't Read Ready Player One is a headlong, at-times-nostalgic adventure deep inside a virtual reality world that's full of '80s pop culture. It revolves around Wade Watts, a teenage gunter in search of an Easter egg hidden within the OASIS, which is a universe of virtual reality. The stakes are vast, with the winner inheriting a vast fortune and actual control over the OASIS itself. What Wade has to fight against, therefore, is quite a challenge: alliances in a race against time while fighting corporate greed.

Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life - Review and summary
Too Long, Didn't Read It is the blend, harmonious and most perfect, between science-backed research with ancient Japanese wisdom that gives the roadmap to a long, full life. That is not about chasing fleeting happiness but living out your purpose, your ikigai, and finding ways to weave it into your day-to-day routine. The book indeed narrates an interesting journey in the whole lives of centenarians in Okinawa but does provide all tips on diet, exercise, and mindfulness that make for a whole broad manual to well-being.
