I’m curious too. I’m at the point where I stop reading books of some categories altogether. I read a bunch and they have all the same message.

Such books about:

- "the economy is shit and we are just waiting for the mega crash" (popular in Germany)

- books about sustainability (buy less shit, don’t waste so much)

- anti-consumerism (we consume to much stuff, but buy this book)

- minimalism (own less stuff)

- bootstrapping a software company (find an audience, build a product, release, iterate)

- nutrition (eat food, mostly plants, not too much, everything else can’t be properly researched because of long time horizons and an incapability to find causation)

- correlation is not causation (and here are one hundred examples, Freakonomics style)

- success (all survivorship bias)
