What makes a life meaningful?

One approaches it through work and society.
The other through relationships, correspondence and human connection.

Bu****it Jobs - David Graeber examines the phenomenon of meaningless, unnecessary work and why so many people spend their lives doing jobs they believe shouldn’t exist.

The Correspondent - Virginia Evans is a novel about a woman whose correspondence with people around the world opens up questions about connection, loneliness, identity, and the lives we build.

Before you fill your calendar, answer this first: what are you actually making time for?

Ikigai explores the Japanese concept of finding purpose and meaning in the everyday—the things that give us a reason to get up, keep going and live with intention.

A thoughtful book for the start of a new week. 📖

A young teen, haunted by the ghost of his father, takes it upon himself to save his brother and his people from a warlord’s marauding army. A frustrated detective is driven to the brink, confronting the vengeful spirit killing grooms on their wedding night. What happens when British colonials find Martians in Africa, a brash warrior battles his elders and ancient horrors in order to secure paradise for his people, or an exiled abiba is stolen away to find his true destiny?

Emerging Africanfuturist writer/director Dilman Dila brings us Where Rivers Go to Die, a startling collection of eight wonderful tales full of imagination, wonder, sorrow, power, and hope that weave Uganda’s wonderful myth and reality with its past, present, and possible future as only he can.

Reading is not just a hobby.
It teaches us how to think.
How to question.
How to imagine lives beyond our own.
And sometimes, how to find our way back to ourselves.

A book cover is the shortest story ever told.

Before a book speaks through its pages, it speaks through its cover.

A flash of colour. A carefully chosen typeface. An image that lingers just long enough to spark curiosity.

Every cover is an invitation. A promise. A quiet argument for why this story deserves your attention.

Today, we’re committing the literary sin we all secretly enjoy:

Judging these books by their covers.

Which one has earned your vote?
