Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind is a 2011 book by the Israeli military historian Yuval Noah Harari, based on a series of lectures he gave at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. It was first published in Hebrew in Israel in 2011, and in English in 2014.
Yeah I added this to my ereader years ago after a friend recommended it enough times that I felt obligated to. Opened it once but couldn’t fight the feeling that it was going to be terrible so never started.

Someone gifted me these books and they belong in my “social fascist” book pile
And this is now more than I previously knew about the book, as a person who at some point had one (thanks to some awful dork).
Could just never properly crack it open, instant boredom and eye rolls every time. You’ve given me a closure I didn’t realize I needed lol
