The Hub

I liked how it showed the chaos of IT work and how a team can turn things around, it felt real and relatable in many moments. Some parts leaned a bit too much into business lesson territory, but I still found myself picking up useful ideas about teamwork, communication, and keeping projects on track. Overall, it was a good reminder that even messy situations can be fixed with the right approach.

Even though this book is quite old and some things may not apply today, it still offers timeless lessons like planning your work and writing clean code, some parts were a bit too detailed, but I came away with solid tips to improve my coding.

Can’t go wrong with this one, I always recommend it to anyone. I even mentioned a tiny piece of it in my own book, so please do yourself a favour and read it as soon as you can.

Maybe I’m a bit biased, but The 5 Elements Of Effective Thinking really changed my life. It gave me simple but powerful ways to think better and solve problems, and I keep coming back to its lessons again and again.

This is a book I’d recommend to any developer, especially those at junior to mid-level. It covers important stuff beyond coding that really helps you grow in your career.

This isn’t really my style of book, but I’m attached to it because it was the very first book someone gifted me. I’ll never forget that, and there’s a little story about it in my own book!

Currently reading this one, I’m not sure how I feel about it yet, but I’ll update this section once I finish it.
