What's your opinion on so many Startup books apart from Lean Startup, Zero to One. Should one read the typical 4-6 usually recommended or are there some hidden gems not talked about much? Though, personally I feel that after reading 2-3 books, rest of the bits can be acquired by the occasional blogposts. Also, these periodic blogposts are sometimes better as they help in reinforcing ideas/ important pointers which one might forget after reading a book. One aspect of books which can't always be replicated in blogposts are the case studies.
- muzani 8y agoMost of it is crap. Rule of thumb for anything, the harder books to read are often the best. So not simple blogs. Good ideas are difficult to explain. I'd say Lean Startup and Zero to One actually lie on the "easy to understand" categories. The YC related stuff is a little harder but worth the effort.
