Music, Movies, and Books

Harry Potter must be mentioned as it was my introduction to the fantasy genre. LOTR and the Hobbit quickly followed, but it didn't stop with these more mainstream books, soon I turned to series most people never even heard of 😂 Amazon has my favorite series, Wheel of Time, in production for a tv series now so I'm super excited 😁

Of course a range of different types philosophy, you'll find I enjoy something from pretty much every period and theme 😊 As so many others my fascination started with the existentialist, such as Nietzsche, Kierkegaard and Sartre, who remain among my favorites. But it also includes analytical authors like Russell and Quine, as well as Aristotle, Rousseau and more.
