Domonique came to Edinburgh as a student and never left, loving the community spirit and cultural vibes. Tech guru, volunteer and keen runner, she loves to read but needs a little helping hand to get through the book stack. That's where RBC comes in.
Top RBC non-fiction recommendations:
Tough Women - Jenny Tough
Four Thousand Weeks - Oliver Burkeman
Doughnut Economics - Kate Raworth
Longtime RBC member and globetrotter, Bryn now wants to bring Rebel Book Club to his new found home. Balancing a love of the great outdoors, his springer spaniel and proper whiskey (alongside all-important books of course), he's looking forward to growing the non-fiction community in Scotland.
Biggest RBC learning: "So many to choose from. It has helped me inform my world view about universal basic income, reducing plastic, becoming vegetarian and designing your life to name just a few!"
Top non-fiction recommendations:
Anti Fragile by Nassim Nicolas Taleb
Utopia for Realists by Rutger Bregman
Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett
