Stuff White People Like by Christian Lander

Stuff White People Like by Christian Lander is a caricature of how one dimensional white people really are can be. The book is a bundled collection of 150 “stuff” white people like. It is filled with humor, sarcasm, irony, and the “occasional” truthful sore points (for White people at least).

It can be read quickly from cover to cover but since there is no continuous story the 150 similarly themed sections also lend themselves for occasional readings here and there. Don’t expect anything else then some laughs and a meaningless good time. For me this has been the first reading of this type about White people and as such I liked the entertainment as well as the humor at the expense of White people like myself.

The idea for Stuff White People Like first started out with Lander’s likewise named blog www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com. If you like the blog then you will like his book and vice versa. With the blogs gaining popularity he eventually received a book deal to further expound on all the stuff white people like. So you can get your fix of humor about how transparent and embarrassing White people are can be by either buying the book from Amazon as a hard copy or you can also get it from Audible as an audiobook.

Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984) by George Orwell

In many ways Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984) by George Orwell in 1949 is like an interesting thought experiment about what people with too much control might do and how it would shape society, politics, and individual people’s lives. And by too much power I am referring to a grave imbalance of power shifted from the people to a few “chosen” individuals. Sure, there have been people such as Stalin who tried to make something along the same lines happen but it has turned out nothing like what Orwell is portraying. Though contextually maybe not as relevant as it was when it was first published, the wealth of information and topics being addressed in this little book are in many ways timeless and should not be missed.

Nineteen Eighty-Four addresses issues from human nature as who we are, what we want, and what extreme horrors we are capable of to social struggles of dominance, scrupulous political savagery, and ideological supremacy. No doubt, this is a dark portrayal of the future and in many ways a warning message and reminder from George Orwell to society. In addition it is also written in a stimulating style that carried me from cover to cover in a matter of hours.

I have to admit, it took countless recommendations of Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984), especially by a very good friend, until I finally got my act together and read George Orwell’s masterpiece. It is a true classic. Well, it’s not like I know what I am talking about since I haven’t read most of the countless so called classics out there. Or at least not yet. Either way I would label this book as a must read.
