I just started Simulacron-3 by Daniel Galouye (which is the book that inspired the movie The 13th Floor). The book I most recently finished is Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Found it at a yard sale a few years ago and was curious to read since it was all the rage in the 90s. I’d also like to read Dianetics one day out of curiosity since as a little kid in the 80s I saw those commercials all the time

Oil 101, which details oil from it's discovery to its finished products, how it gets transported, and where all it gets used. It's a bit dated since it released right before the shale revolution kicked off but oil hasn't changed much other than that.
Also reading How to Be Rich by Getty. I like it because the title is correct, it's a book on acting like a rich person instead of insisting that an algorithm will get you there. Getty understands that he wildcatted during the oil boom and not everybody can do that. He also hated his sissy grandson so much he didn't give a fuck that he got kidnapped lol.
Lastly I'm reading Extreme Ownership because I think Jocko is the most authentic person to have a public voice and as a leader of a small team I find the principles within to be sound.
