Thor (thorgalle) | 3 comments I'm curious... which top article writers on Readup have written one or more books too? Here to get us started, a few conspicuous ones from the Readup writer leaderboards over the last year:

- Haruki Murakami on Readup -> Haruki Murakami on Goodreads
- Yuval Noah Harari on Readup -> Yuval Noah Harari on Goodreads
- Cal Newport on Readup -> Cal Newport on Goodreads

But are there also lesser-known names, with lesser known books?

Thor (thorgalle) | 3 comments Writer Sung J. Woo (Readup link), who is also a reader on Readup (!), has written 4 books as well! -> Sung J Woo on Goodreads. His 5y old article Why I’m too selfish to have children posted on Readup recently got us all thinking about the different ways we can live our lives.

Good one, she's not in the most read Readup writers of the last year, but her article list on Readup is super extensive. I'm seeing a few interesting titles there.

Also marked Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion as to read 😎

Alexa Rohn (alexarohn) | 2 comments Trick Mirror is good! I have a copy, darn that international shipping or I'd just send it your way lol.

IDK if Anne Helen Peterson is on there too, but her book Can't Even is great. Although...not sure if it would be as compelling if you weren't one of the lost US millenials she's talking about. Picked up Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud recently too. She used to be a major writer for buzzfeed

May not be top writers on Readup anymore, I just know those babes are great. AHP has a private newsletter that is totally worth reading.
