Number the stars ( my English class book that I like )
The Heavenly Demon Can't Live a Normal Life ( they have the Manhwa adaptation, but I prefer the novel, which is like 130 chapters ahead )
Solo levelling (I finished this novel four years ago because the manhwa is slow as heck )
Gantz (the same author of inuyashiki, I read this during middle school before the author started making inuyashiki )
slave b ( great manhwa, lots of thought-provoking scenes)
overlord ( best non d&d novel )
no game no life ( if only the author didn't plagiarise the cover art, maybe we get a season 2, but the novel is excellent)
you can heal your life (self-help book )
drawing form and pose ( helps a lot with anatomy and movement )
anatomy of the moving body ( tells you how muscle and joint works )
romance of the three kingdoms ( classic. The first time I read this was with my father 20 years ago. I have tons of memories with this book )
The 48 Laws of Power (I write a thesis about this book, and it shows how to stay in power )
