OUR BOOK SELECTION
What we read during summer. Sharing seven books that have given us moments of inspiration and joy. For you to explore, enjoy and hopefully love as much as we do.

Fiction


The Talented Mr. Ripley
Patricia Highsmith
"It’s a book that reminds you how easily beautiful exteriors can hide deteriorating insides. But really it has everything you could ever want in a summer novel: steamy Italian beaches, complex love triangle, murder…"
Call Me By Your Name
André Aciman
“Nothing says summer like an intense romantic obsession, languid afternoons and yes juicy peaches."
The Beach
Alex Garland
"Darkly hallucinogenic tale of a restless English backpacker’s search for a fabled Islam paradise off the coast of Thailand, and the nightmarish unravelling of the utopian community he discovers therein."

Psychology & Spirituality


The Happiness Advantage
Shawn Anchor
“Based on the largest study ever conducted on happiness and human potential (a survey conducted by the author of more than 1,600 students), Harvard lecturer Shawn Achor shares seven core principles of positive psychology”
A New Earth
Ekchart Tolle
"Eckhart Tolle describes how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to jealousy, anger, and unhappiness and teaches us how to awaken to a new state of consciousness and live a truly fulfilling life."
The Great Mental Models
Shane Parrish
“Mastering The Great Mental Models helps you thrive in an uncertain world. The right cognitive tools prepare you for any type of challenge. From parenting to healthy eating, relationships to personal productivity, and from learning to product design, this book will give you new lenses for understanding life.”

Autobiography novel
Yoga
Emmanuel Carrère
'This is not a book about yoga. This is a story of how a life can fray, tighten itself into a noose, unravel... profound and moving. Yoga hurls us towards the outer edges of consciousness, where, finally, we can see things as they really are.”
