The Courage to Be Disliked by Ichiro Kishimi & Fumitake Koga (Hardcover)

A conversation between a philosopher and a skeptical young man, built on Adlerian psychology. The core idea: stop living for other people's approval and your past stops controlling you.

Read it if: you overthink what people think of you. Reads fast, hits hard.

Second Shelf — a steady read. A week or two of evenings.
