Best book I've ever read.

01:00

Just bought the book. I already read Sapiens and 21 lessons for the 21st century, curious about Homo Deus. (don't ask about the order :p )Thank you for the review it is short but is quite enough. Seems like it's been quite a while since you filmed your last review, if you are alright; I would like to see more from you!

I just want to say that i love you.❤

Why dont you tell us all how in this book “there is no need for the second coming of Jesus Christ” This book is trash. Dont read it. Its not even possible.

Trash.

*Spoiler Alert* Just finished it today. Words cant decribe how happy I am that Thariq was back. If not, I dont think I would be able to move on with my life. Mariam and Laila, the women that you are ♡

This book is genuinely the most blatant attempt of an author trying to capitalise on the coattails of The Handmaid’s Tale TV popularity. Just wish she was even 1% the writer Atwood is. What’s even funnier is that in time this author is now spreading and supporting the real life right-wing drivel that this book claims to denounce.

I miss your book reviews 😭😞😭

Iam reading this book..it is really GREAT

ratio

Harari thinks living beings are just algorithms, which is a shallow understanding of life.

Homo Deus is mostly about Homo Sapiens.

Wtf u spoiled the book

A little louder volume would be appreciated 🙂.......

I just bought this book

He also talks about happiness which is essential for humans to evolve in their lives and also that GDP replaced GDH and all that 😊

Humans need happiness as squirrels to nuts❤

I have read A Thousand Splendid Suns and The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini last year. These two books broke my heart sooooooooooo badly. Today I bought And The Mountains Echoed. And I am very afraid to read it. Khaled Hosseini is a Genius ❤

Love you fairy

I love you Olivia so much. Love your fairy appearance.

Love u.

I've read this book. Amazing and brilliant. I disagree with a lot of what is said. (Mostly when he repeatedly states algorithms could make our decisions for us better than we can for ourselves.) I think he neglected the concept of consciousness. Perhaps we make bad decisions, but I don't think algorithms will ever replace our decision-making entirely. Scared me when I realized his high position in the world economic forum, and his apparent incentive for these statements. Though he did cover this in the last couple chapters, I would have liked if he had elaborated on those thoughts a little more like he did with the algorithm horror story.

Looking forward to seeing more creative videos like this one 👍👍👍

Amazing

Few days back I finished this novel and truly heart touching can anybody suggest me book like this?

I found similarity with One hundred years of solitude!! Subtle

A book of horror . What is this story of a man marrying a young girl and has older woman like daughter and mother 🤢

I recommend "Quran" to read

very helpful insights... thanks. You'll probably say no, but if you want ebooks, I don't mind sharing

I’ve just finished reading Harari’s "Homo Deus". In addition to his two books, which I’ve read very carefully, having compiled a large collection of quotations and commenting on many of them, I’ve also read many of his articles and listened to many of his speeches. My conclusion is sad: Harari is a little monster which is quite worthy of his era, and his primitive worldview is based on a mixture of poorly understood science and Buddhism. Although he says many reasonable things about our history, the current situation and the possible future that are really worth hearing, the basic ideas of his worldview are as primitive as they are destructive: from the point of view of Harari, we are nothing more than deterministic mechanisms in which there is no freedom and conscience of Existenz, no mystery of Transcendence, but only rotating gears of physical processes that supposedly create consciousness and all its phenomena - the whole reality of our individual existence. In short, according to Harari, you have no soul, no freedom, no God, you are nothing but algorithms. This is materialism brought to its absurd conclusion. I am not at all surprised that Harari is so popular among the elite - this is the thinker who perfectly embodies modern era of materialism and perfectly brainwashes the crowd to preserve the status quo. I am also not surprised that Harari has never mentioned in his books the modern renaissance of scientific research of enteogens in the largest universities and the amazing results of these studies which are mentioned by all the major media and which are best illustrated by this publication of Johns Hopkins University: files.csp.org/Psilocybin/Hopkins-CSP-Psilocybin2006.pdf Why isn't Harari talking about it? Because these studies refute his primitive worldview, same as the works of contemporary idealists refute it, including, notably, Bernardo Kastrup. I feel very sorry for people who, while reading Harari, perceive his statements uncritically, without separating the seeds from the chaff. This perception not only does not benefit from reading his books, but it is also detrimental, especially when it comes to children and young people. So here is my advice to all parents: do not let your children to the books of Harari without warning about the need for extremely critical perception of his ideas. Do not let this demonic thinker with his destructive worldview deprive your children of faith in their freedom and moral responsibility, in the possibility of a completely different, much more beautiful worldview and the future of our world.

my current read! and I am so appalled and sad and numb too. my first khaled hosseini book, and I love his writing style.

I can’t wait to start reading it.

But the game involves only male names. Because, if it’s a girl, Laila has already named her. ❤️

Thanks

Hi. I have just finished the novel and absolutely agree with your review. Other than this book, the other novel by Hosseini that Ive read is the Kite Runner many moons ago. Stories in each chapter were a delight to read. I did hate leaving behind some characters, after developing an attachment and then having to start again with new characters in each chapter. But I think thats what makes the book great. Hosseini has a way of drawing you into different stories and has you invested in different characters within a few pages. The characters felt fleshed out and well thought out. You dont feel like bis ideas were rushed through but rather well thought out. It was interesting to see how Abdullah viewed Parawana and then in turn learning her circumstances. Seeing how Abdullah, Pari and Nadi viewed Nila was also interesting. We never get Nilas POV but Hosseini beautifully manages to potray a deep understanding of her without having to do so. Loved it

And Now series is available

I got Homo Deus some days ago. It's the same exhilarating vibe as it was for Sapiens.

I just finished that book... I wish it had another 400 pages more...

do u know any similar books

Sally Rooney’s Hate Is the New Normal It is not easy to convince the Snapchat generation to read books. To do so, you must be a gifted writer and know which buttons to press in young people’s hearts. Sally Rooney, a young Irish author, is that kind of writer. Her first two books have won multiple awards and she is widely regarded as one of the most prominent voices of millennials. Rooney is also very opinionated. She is a self-proclaimed Marxist and an avid supporter of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement (BDS). In line with her views, she has refused to sell translation rights to Israeli publishers. Because of her notoriety, her decision caused quite a stir. The New York Times stated, “Sally Rooney Declines to Sell Translation Rights to Israeli Publisher.” CNN echoed, “Sally Rooney refuses to sell Hebrew rights for latest book to Israeli publisher, citing political objections,” and other prominent news outlets also reported her decision. In response, Israel's two largest bookstore chains announced that they would pull all of Rooney's titles from their shelves. This also caused a stir, though not as much. The BBC reported it, as did The Guardian and other British news outlets. Naturally, the Jewish press was all over the case, as well. I sympathize with the response of the bookstore chains, just as I was in favor of banning other individuals and brands that boycott Israel. At the same time, I understand why they are doing this, and I am glad that it is causing a stir in Israel. We can look the other way for only so long. At some point, we will have to ask ourselves why the world hates us, and it is better if we do it now than later. We need to use such incidents constructively. By "constructively," I mean that we should use them as an impetus to return to the roots of our nation, to our fundamental principles of mutual responsibility and brotherly love. These are the building blocks of our nation, and these are the qualities that we lost long ago and for which we were exiled from Israel. When we were cast as a nation that was to be “a light unto nations,” we were made to reflect the splendor of love of others to the entire world. Long before we gave the world Albert Einstein and Arthur Rubenstein, we gave it “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Granted, we did not quite manage to make it a reality, but the idea itself was, and still is, so novel, so unlike human nature, that to this day it seems undoable. Still, the world will not leave us in peace until we begin to implement this very legacy we had left to humanity. Indeed, it makes perfect sense to demand that the progenitors of this sublime idea be the first to implement it. The more the world becomes divided and hostile, the more it needs its opposite - love of others. The more people hate each other, the more they will demand that we love each other, and they will hate us for not doing so and setting an example for the world to follow. In the near future, numerous celebrities, pundits, and politicians will declare their disapproval of Israel. They will not justify our existence as a sovereign state unless we justify it by setting an example of unity. Nothing else will satisfy them; nothing else will appease their hatred. For more on this, see my publication The Jewish Choice: Unity or Anti-Semitism...

Are you Single?

this is a really great review I also liked the book but was really irritated by the amount of alcohol the characters drank

Thanks

You’re soooooo good , keep up the good work 👏👏👏

Nice going , so i thought to try to find out the ending here cos it gets a touch upsetting the last thirty or so pages. Was worried about alinor's fate . I picked up three of her books from our men's shed, they get donated along with timber and tools . Character development ain't an easy task. Hard to make sense of James at the end suggesting termination of their lovechild pregnancy. I may just have also the next book in the series then from all her books I picked up . I thought reading an historical setting novel is a good way of lea r ning some history. I liked lady of the rivers , i thought phillipa may have an Ernest Hemingway style except I haven't read Hemingway yet but got the style of t the man from that movie with Owen Wilson ^Midnight in Paris ^ .

This book is on my list for sure. Speaking of Homo Deus.. do you have any thoughts on Neuralink? would you upgrade yourself if the option were available in the future?

After centuries finally a new video and really loved it. I also noticed that you are really active on Instagram and I would say you daily post something or at least update your status. I am following you on your blog as well. Liv what I think you are really classy. I have noticed when you like a book you post the review on your blog or Instagram. But the books which really touch your heart then you make a video about to talk about your love. I can see in your blue eyes you are so much excited about this book. Remember me? I asked you about books about female friendship and you recommend me A Thousand Ships or Never Far From Nowhere by Andrea Levy. Sorry I couldn't read both because of my reading slump.

Picked up this book recently. I wasn't sure if I could read it before Sapiens. Gonna start reading it soon.
