Why I Read
Software development is as much about people and processes as it is about code. The best technical solutions often come from understanding fundamental principles rather than chasing the latest trends.
I focus on books that teach timeless concepts: how to write maintainable code, design resilient systems, and work effectively with teams. These principles remain relevant regardless of which framework or language is popular today.
