These aren't mine! (24 books)

For those who fake it 'til they make it.

This list has the books you pretend you don't need. Books with the word 'guide' or 'how to' on their covers contradict the I-know-what-I'm-doing charade you're putting on to appear successful when you're actually still on the way, to look like you got your shit together when in reality, you don't, because somehow you're ashamed. And no one has to know that you struggle with happiness... with autonomy nor competence.

So, be free to discover these books, and read them electronically, to make life better in secret.
