A journey through pages with my book reviews every second Monday

  • Morgan Housel: Same As Ever

    Morgan Housel’s Same As Ever is a thoughtful exploration of the timeless patterns in human behaviour, particularly in the realms of finance, decision-making, and risk. Rather than chasing the latest trends or forecasting the future, Housel invites readers to reflect on what never changes: our fears, desires, and irrational tendencies. It’s a book that gently nudges us to stop obsessing over novelty and instead pay attention to the constants that shape our lives.

    The book blends storytelling, behavioural economics and personal reflection, offering insights that are both practical and philosophical. Housel’s central thesis is simple yet profound: while the world around us evolves at breakneck speed, the core of human nature remains stubbornly the same. Whether you’re managing money, navigating relationships, or just trying to make sense of life, the lessons here are refreshingly evergreen.

About

Are you a passionate reader? So am I!

Here at ‘Books I Like’, I dive into the fascinating worlds of management, social sciences, history, biographies, and travel essays. Basically, if it has pages and words, I’m in!

Every second Monday at 9 AM CET, I share my latest book reviews in English and French, offering insights and reflections on a wide range of topics. It’s like a book club, but without the awkward silences and questionable snack choices.

As Umberto Eco wisely said, ‘There are more books in the world than hours in which to read them.’ My reading list is always overflowing, but I’m always on the lookout for great recommendations to add to the pile.

If you have a book you think I should read, feel free to reach out and it might just jump to the top of my list!

If you enjoy my reviews and want to support my work, consider buying me a book and let’s have a chat about it.

Happy reading!
