If you've ever wanted to get into a person's head, finding out what books he or she reads is a good place to start. Time reports on the tomes that have been taking up real estate in Bill Gates' mind of late, "perfectly timed for the holiday season." In fact, the Microsoft co-founder offers his wholehearted recommendations for these books—ranging from a "page-turner" about the fall of Theranos to a primer on how to worry in the most constructive, efficient way. "The holidays are a great time to read new books," he says in a video in which he makes his suggestions while driving through a nighttime Christmas-themed park. Read on for Gates' choices to close out 2018:
- Educated, by Tara Westover
- Army of None, by Paul Scharre
- Bad Blood, by John Carreyrou
- 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, by Yuval Noah Harari
- The Headspace Guide to Meditation and Mindfulness, by Andy Puddicombe
