My favorite read in 2025

Book cover of The Madness of Crowds

Tony Sandy ❤️ loved this book because...

The author of this book attacks the self righteous attitude of women's rights, gay rights and transexualism and the bias of positive discrimination in race as it actually creates more prejudice against these groups of people in the general population. It is fascism by any other name or outrage politics, hissy fits and victim hood, attempting to manipulate the public into accepting the lies of the situation as truth when it patently isn't.

My 2nd favorite read in 2025

Book cover of Presence: The Strange Science and True Stories of the Unseen Other

Tony Sandy ❤️ loved this book because...

This book covers all forms of this subject, from people feeling that they are not alone, to talking to unseen presences as in the case of explorers in the arctic wastes or climbing mountains. It also doesn't shy away from mediumship (is there anybody there?), even though this is a scientific attempt to understand the phenomena

Why should I read it?

1 author picked Presence as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it.

What is this book about?

In this enthralling book, Ben Alderson-Day explores one of the most curious experiences known to humankind: the universal, disturbing sense that someone or something is there when we are alone - the feeling of an unseen presence.

When and why do presences emerge? What does this feeling mean and where does it come from? And how can we even begin to understand a phenomenon that can be transformative for those who experience it and yet so hard to put into words? The answers to these questions lie in this fascinating exploration through cutting-edge research in contemporary psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience and…

My 3rd favorite read in 2025

Book cover of The Battle of Stalingrad Through German Eyes

Tony Sandy ❤️ loved this book because...

Like his other three books in the series, you really felt for those involved and saw through the illusions of war that politicians sold as a viewpoint. The German war machine was driven by grit and determination, not weaponry or tactics, despite the lies told after the war about advanced technology (most Germans walked to war across the Russian steppes and they were overwhelmed by the size of the country and the amount of badly trained and armed forces fighting them, also they relied on horse drawn artillery, more than tanks).

Why should I read it?

1 author picked The Battle of Stalingrad Through German Eyes as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it.

What is this book about?

Five months, one week and three days of hell. The German offensive to capture Stalingrad began in August 1942, using Friedrich Paulus's 6th Army and elements of the 4th Panzer Army. The attack was supported by intense bombing that reduced much of the city to rubble. The battle degenerated into house-to-house fighting, as both sides fought for the city on the Volga. By mid-November, the Germans were on the brink of victory as the Soviet defenders clung on to a final few slivers of land along the west bank of the river.

Then, on 19 November, the Red Army launched…
