Our Top Ten Books of 2019

This post was originally published in our weekly newsletter, Accelerated. Check it out if you are interested in more content from us!

We both read a lot this year — Olivia read 125 books and Justine read 96 — and we’re excited to share our favorites.

There’s already great lists with the top tech & VC books, so we won’t rehash those (shoutout to Bad Blood and Super Pumped, which we loved!). Instead, we’re featuring books you may not have heard of, on topics ranging from the opioid epidemic to hostage negotiations. Most of them were published post-2017, so they’re still relatively new.

We’d love to hear about your favorite books this year. We started a Twitter thread with this list — please weigh in with your recommendations!
