Rated Seven Languages in Seven Weeks: A Pragmatic Guide to Learning Programming Languages 10/10
I have read this book eight years ago and it still is one of my favorite books.<br/>In the past months I have had the pleasure of getting in touch with the author (now he has a company called Groxio which helps you become a better developer) and I can understand even more what he thinks about the importance of learning different programming languages. <br/><br/>An important fact: this book helped Jose Valim create Elixir.

Rated Bumba Queen Weave 8/10
This is a short book recommended for older kids and young teens (8-12), I believe. It is about a girl that lives with a witch and a dragon. Why is she there? She seems to be lost in that part of the world. What must she do to go back to her part of the world? To do that, whe must face her fears. But she is a dragon too (figuratively). <br/><br/>We follow our hero ("Kid", in Lady Shriv's words) in her journey. And then there is a plot twist. But, OK, I can tell much here. <br/><br/>One thing I didn't like much about this book is that I wanted more dialogues. And one thing that I liked is that it is full of content although very short.

Rated Celular: como dar um tempo 10/10
Não esperava que fosse ser tão bom. Contém boas dicas, discussão de princípios e indicação de ferramentas. A principal novidade para mim foi a relevância de mindfulness para o objetivo de ficar menos ligado ao celular.

Rated Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World 10/10
This book was much more useful than what I expected. Cal gives you a tough but simple way to get rid of digital distractions but still use technology.
Rated Skin in the Game: The Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life 10/10
Reading and rereading this book is mandatory to anyone that wants to live.<br/>Taleb is older and acknowledges that now he does not want to explain everything. But what you can understand from a first reading is enough to change your view of many things. I plan to reread this book soon. That's why I bought it in hard cover.
