Walter Issacson's Steve Jobs bio. I legit disliked Steve Jobs. I could not put this book down for the week it took to read. Then I became an Issacson junky. He just digs into the minutia and makes it digestible.

Currently reading Frank Ramsey by Cheryl Misak. Will appeal to philosophy nerds mostly. Fascinating how a kid of 26 changed the fields of philosophy, mathematics, and economics, but no one really knows of him.

For an interesting deep dive on everything wrong with Isaacson’s Jobs’ bio.

>I legit disliked Steve Jobs.

Do you mean before reading the bio, during, or after?
