A memoir in the form of a comic, Art Spiegelmam tells the story of his Jewish father's experience in Poland during WWII in Maus: My Father Bleeds History. If a picture is worth a thousand words, 157 pages of raw, unfiltered pictures tells more of a story than a textbook ever could.
Maus is one of the first graphic novels that I've read, and also one of the few banned books I've read. I recommend Mause to everyone.
Better learning resources available elsewhere. Book covered the basics and had a lot of great puzzles based on famous matches, but everything in this book can be found online.
i thought it was a cookbook, but it was a book about a woman's experience with her developing body. i still liked it though
this is an easy read about meta-ethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics with empathy and ignorance as the source for our decisions. this is the second time i picked up the book, and the first time i read the book thoughtfully. at a surface-level, the messages are very simple: we should be kind because it's the right thing to do, and those who aren't lack an understanding of (or choose not to understand) others' experiences. there are thought-provoking questions throughout each chapter to help the reader better understand their ignorance, and to help appreciate the different ways other people express their love.
