As cringe as it sounds, I'm currently reading The 48 Laws of Power and it's extremely good and well written, especially for somebody like me who is just getting into psychology, books, etc. If you have any good book recommendations, please tell me.

I dont know much about non-fiction books, but i read a lot of novels which are good for learning about different types of people and their psychology. I can give you some recommendations on those if you like.

I was thinking about reading American Psycho, but apparently it's a weird book with pages of just colognes and brands or something like that. Is that true? I was also thinking about A Clockwork Orange, but I tried to watch the movie with my mum and it felt like a fever dream. She didn't want to watch it, so I could only get like 40 minutes in but it seemed like an interesting concept

The book of a clockwork orange is amazing and certainly worth reading. While i havent finished American psycho yet(the book) i can tell you if your not an experienced reader or your new to reading i would probably hold it off for a while. It can be quite boring at times but i do enjoy it, just wouldnt recommend if your new to reading, especially if your new to reading fiction

Thank you. I also have a question: has studying psychology made your life worse or better? I've always been curious.

Depends the person you are it can make you very cynical or deadpaned, but it can help you alot to treat yourself and understand how to manage people and social situations

People think it helps only if you needed it, but it can help "manipulate" and businesses
