Every week, we’ll pick a new book to be featured on Reading Stash as the book of the week. This book may be from any of our available categories (currently Business, Fantasy, Sci-Fi), and is a quality book that we feel readers should check out.

Our book of the week for this week is Creativity Inc.

Creativity, Inc. is a book for managers who want to lead their employees to new heights, a manual for anyone who strives for originality. It is also the first-ever, all-access trip into the nerve center of Pixar Animation Studios - into the story meetings, the postmortems, and the ‘Braintrust’ sessions where art is born.

Creativity, Inc. is, at heart, a book about how to build a creative culture—but it is also, as Pixar co-founder and president Ed Catmull writes, “an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible.”

Creativity Inc is a fantastic book that all entrepreneurs and startups should read on building a creative organization. Inspiration is one of the hardest things to develop - and Pixar is a stunning example of a creative and inspirational company.

Our book of the week for this week (August 10th - August 17th) is the epic science fiction and fantasy novel Dune, by Frank Herbert.

Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, who would become the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib. He would avenge the traitorous plot against his noble family–and would bring to fruition humankind’s most ancient and unattainable dream.

This is the first installment of the Dune saga, and in 2003 was cited as the world’s best-selling science fiction novel. It is a great read for all science-fiction and fantasy fans as well as those looking to get into the genre.

A new 50th Anniversary Edition of Dune has also been published this year - containing pages of fantastic and mesmerising artwork. For more information, check it out on the official Folio Society website. Dune may be 50 years old, but it is still a classic you should definitely read.

Good morning readers! We have two important announcements this week:

Science Fiction Books

This week, we welcome the addition of a new genre to Reading Stash: Science Fiction. We’re kicking off the Sci-Fi genre with 30 books from a wide array of science fiction authors.

Featured Books

We’re also adding a new feature to Reading Stash: featured books. Every week, we will feature a new book on the front page of Reading Stash.

This week, we’re starting off with a Sci-Fi book: Agent to the Stars.

Agent to the Stars is a terrific and humorous book by John Scalzi. The book features the Yherajk: a benevolent race of aliens that look frighteningly repulsive and smell horrible. Therefore, they enlist the help of a Hollywood agent to assist them in befriending humans.

Agent to the Stars is a great read for Science Fiction fans and readers looking for a fun book. It’s our first Book of the Week, and we hope that you’ll check it out!

We will be featuring a different book every week from any of the genres available on Reading Stash (currently Business, Fantasy, and Sci-Fi). It will be a great way for readers to be exposed to more quality books.
