All right, Jenny Thingumybob, here's a small list of books I think you'll like:
As Good as Gold
She's quite goal driven, not unlike you, and she's both a sportswoman and a journalist, so she's very amusing to read. Also, you know from the start she's got what it takes to make it to the Olympics, so you just want to know how the events unfold.
5/7
Genesis and Development of a Scientific Fact
The best book about syphilis I've ever read! Sure, it also happens to be the only one, but this is actually one of the most important books on philosophy of science from the previous century. It explains how the way we view STDs changed over millennia, and how science progresses in a rather erratic way.
6/9
Any very short introduction, by Oxford University Press
Seriously, pick one at random. Odds are it'll be awesome. Also, because there are zillions of topics to choose from, you're bound to pick the one that interests you the most.
On Liberty, by John Stuart Mill
If you're European, in the Americas, or in a gigantic island where all animals want to kill you, John Stuart Mill is the kind of guy who's shaped your way of thinking about freedom even though you're unaware of it. I'm not exaggerating. He's pretty much the guy behind the "live and let live" motto, although he didn't quite use these words. For he was a philosopher. And philosophers tend to be prolix. But he's cool.
10/10
