Few endeavors rival the importance of reading. Its influence stretches far beyond a mere leisure activity, delivering multiple benefits such as improving critical thinking, expanding knowledge, and engaging our imagination, lighting a creative spark within us. I aim to read at least 100 books during service, and I will keep track of them here. I hope my 'Book List' will ignite your curiosity, opening new doors to literary exploration!
