Thanks to everyone who contributed with a recommendation for the red-pill reading list. These are books that somehow changed how you think about things or convinced somebody else that all is not what it seems.

I have not read many of these books (although I will start working my way through them) so I am not endorsing any of them. This is a reading list by the readers, for the readers.

I know the list isn’t in alphabetical order, I’ve left it how nature intended it.

As there were so many recommendations, I’ve had to split the list over a number of posts. I’ve hyperlinked each book if you want to buy it or look at it but if you can buy away from Amazon, all the better!

Enjoy!

UPDATE - I will combine all the lists into the first post once I have sent them all out (one list was too long for email so had to be split up)

This next two parts of the list are available as an early read for paid subscribers only. My articles take a lot of time to research and write so your support is very much appreciated and will ensure that I can continue to produce the same quality and quantity of articles going forwards.
