United We Stand Divided We Fall

About me: Hi! I'm Rednar, founder of Storylace. I wanted to create this platform ever since I started reading fantasy books and wanted to see art from the stories I read. I'm a creative spirit, entrepreneur and software engineer. I grew up playing video games, reading books and enjoying music (rock is my favorite genre and folk metal my favorite subgenre). I'm curious and an eternal student at heart. I was born and raised in Mexico, where I obtained my college degree in Computer Science. I studied for a Master's Degree in Colchester, UK. In 2015 I came to the US to work at Google in Silicon Valley and I left my job there on 2022 to work full time on Storylace. And More...

What makes me love a book? That it's fast paced and imaginative. I like being surprised and transported to new worlds. I love feeling like I'm right there with the characters, living all the adventures with them. When it comes to nonfiction books I especially like ones that are able to open my eyes and help me look at the world and our society from new perspectives.

Other interests/hobbies: My current hobbies include yoga, tennis, music (I sing and play the violin), hiking and dancing. Interests include tech, arts, nature, business and sociology, among others.

Rednar finished a book on Jul 31

This was a fantastic read! I've already read several books on climate change, social justice, politics and economics, and this right here is a superb addition to the collection.

I think my favorite part of the book was the story about the roots of capitalism. The author presents it very cleanly and dives into how it all began with the enclosure movement during the medieval period. The peasants were so close to achieving something remarkable! But ultimately the landlords and the people in power won, they murdered hundreds of thousands of peasants, capitalist ideals prevailed, and here we are now.

The author weaves history, philosophy, economics and environmental science beautifully at every turn. For example, it was fascinating to see how he
