I mostly read fiction, preferring fantasy and sci-fi within it, but I read pretty much anything, as long as it's well written. And interjecting books from different genre between my usual fantasy/sci-fi keeps things fresh.

Looked up the books you mentioned. Prisoners of Geography is from 2015, and the sequel The Power of Geography is from 2021. Any special reason they are both on bestsellers right now? Or have they been constantly in the list since they released?

Added Prisoners of Geography, Ultra-Processed People and Just One Thing to my to-buy list for next month. Though, when would I actually get around to reading them, is a different matter. 😀

Thanks for the recommendations!
