I have a copy that was the one that, when it was launched in America, they sent 13 copies of it over in 1899. And they were on display in bookstores for people to flip through to see if the novel was going to be a success. I have one of those 1899 copies. Wow. Yeah. Wow. It's amazing.

And it's got love letters in it to people who are probably long since dead, who have dedicated and gifted the book to people in pencil. Uh, yeah, very cool. So I'm a book collector as well. I like first, I like first edition.

Yeah. Um, The History of Magic. I'm going to kick myself because I've forgotten the author. But The History of Magic was recommended by a good friend of mine. Very small Twitter account. A man who calls himself the Gentleman Mystic. But he's a very interesting guy. He recommended that book. I finished that a few weeks ago. Can't remember the author. Not a guy who's written anything else I've read.

But yeah, fictional novels are great. And if you're a man, I mean, I like the James Bond novels by Ian Fleming. Of course you are. Super cool. And I get that you maybe wouldn't like him as much as I would. But if you're a young man, read it. Yeah, men love that.

There's a lot of lessons in there, a lot of meaningful quotes, a lot of meaningful passages, and a lot of lessons in there about how to be a man, how to man up. So there's a lot of reality in fiction. And there's a lot that the authors are trying to tell us about the real world, even through their fictional stories. So those would be my recommendations.

Anything by Ian Fleming, anything by Alexander Dumas, you can't go wrong.
