Foreword: This is a redux version of my post about 6 months ago. It helped quite a few during the first post and I feel like it will help some more newcomers as well this time around. Books have been added and some have been switched around. Take your time and digest. Thanks.

I'm sure most if not all of you know the importance of reading. It's been drilled into our heads since the first day of kindergarten that reading is a cornerstone of our education.

Reading increases your value, not just as a man but as a human being. Whole books filled with knowledge and years of experience compiled for you can be bought or borrowed (yes, for free!). People live, learn, and experience and put pen to paper to document their findings for the world to see. Yet most don't tap into this vast fountain of knowledge.

I can keep going on and on but I'm sure you get the point.

Here's my list of recommended RedPill reading material. Read and digest the sidebar, and when you're ready, come back for more to continue your journey. Enjoy the ride, Alice.

Some books have mixed opinions on the same subject, take with a grain of salt and apply to your life accordingly.

No More Mr. Nice Guy by Robert Glover: This is the book that helped me realize all my years of beta behaviors and identify the root cause of why I was the way I was and where my behaviors (validation seeking, manipulating, emotionally impacted, frustrated pushover, etc) stemmed from (my childhood and teenage years). It helped me understand why certain behaviors are truly unhealthy and why the correct behaviors can right your ship as a man and instill a deep sense of confidence. If you've just recently swallowed the pill and still can't understand or are frustrated by the state of your current behaviors, this book is fantastic. Your basic core of TRP behaviors start here.

Models by Mark Manson: I started my self improvement journey really deep into PUA material. I wanted to prove to myself that I could indeed pull any girl I wanted. This culminated in little success due to the lines, concepts, and routines I learned in an attempt to seduce women. They saw right through it to my inner most deepest insecurities and confidence issues, and most importantly my sheer frustration, desperation, and anger towards them. There were nuggets of great information over in r/seduction and it definitely paved my way to discovering and swallowing TRP. This book cuts straight through the crap and goes to the nuts and bolts behind seduction and social dynamics. Manson focuses the first half of the book on bettering one's self and cultivating behaviors that create an attractive man whilst the second half is all about the actions you must take in order to present the attractive side that you've cultivated out to your subjects. Definitely read after No More Mr. Nice Guy.

How To Win Friends & Influence People by Dale Carnegie: You will learn how to do what this title of the book states and much, much more. A classic staple, Carnegie goes behind the psychology of how human beings interact and feel in a social dynamic. Lots of great examples and techniques on training yourself to be the guy that nobody can seem to get enough of.

The Book Of Pook by Pook: Free PDF. One of the most RedPill compilations you will see. Pook writes in a hilarious story telling style that conveys every TRP message clearly. Must read.

The Rational Male by Rollo Tomassi: An avid poster on this TRP subreddit, Tomassi compiled all of his knowledge into a book that every man should read. Endorsed time and time again in this subreddit. He draws tons of RP knowledge and lessons into this book. One of the books that most users begin their RP journey with.

The Manipulated Man by Esther Vilar: Free PDF This book documents the social conditioning that women are the inferior race and how we've been lead to believe that. The author states many truths about the world and what it is like to be a man and how the socially conditioned world sees otherwise.

Sperm Wars by Robin Baker: Sperm Wars is evolutionary psychology. It is a very powerful book. This will go behind the psychology of why women do things they do (hamstering, cheating, hypergamy) Interesting read, but I'm sure most have covered some of the material presented just by reading on here.

The Prince by Nicolo Machiavelli: Free PDF Written by the man who the Machiavellian traits were named after. Very interesting read and plenty of things that are common sense and may be applicable in every day circumstances.

The Charisma Myth by Olivia Cabane: Leading on from How To Win Friends & Influence People, this book also goes into the psychology behind charm. Cabane states that charm is a skillset that can be learned by anybody. No one is cut from a different cloth. Very interesting to be able to figure out why and how certain people can learn and tap into charm and become quite powerful and influential from it. You can learn to build your skillset of charm through this book.

Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe: The essential beginning training guide to lifting. Rippetoe guides you through the why's, how's, do's, and don'ts of his acclaimed workout routine. Many many men have used this as their introduction to lifting. You will learn how to properly squat, deadlift, benchpress, powerclean, and overhead press your way into the body of the real man you are destined to be. Read and lift heavy.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius: A very simple pathway to practical philosophy. The message is simple but extraordinarily powerful: life is short, the past and the future are inaccessible, pain and pleasure have no meaning, but inside each one of us there is a ruling faculty that is touched only by itself.

Beyond Positive Thinking by Robert Anthony: This one's for the guys who are in the right frame of mind. This will help pull you out of the negative thought cycle. For the guys who are doing well, this will reinforce your psyche and bring even more positivity into your life.

The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson: This book is how to get the discipline in your life to get a slight edge. This book hammers down on simple disciplines and the ideas that consistency is always better than a one time stunner.

The Power Of Now by Eckhart Tolle: Learn to leave your ego behind and live in the present moment. Tolle teaches you why so many are caught up in their lives and ego that it negatively affects how they live. He presents why and how to live in a state of presence: living in the now, as he calls it. This book truly helps you understand some of the factors holding you back from becoming the best person you can be right now. A little bit of a religious side in there but you can power through it. Some users have differing opinions on whether this book supports TRP material, take with a grain of salt.

Millionaire Fastlane by MJ Demarco: No this isn't some get rich quick scheme or ideas on how to make quick money. Demarco presents the idea in his book that there are different ways of thinking about money amongst people. The "Slowlane" way of thinking which is plagued by the ones who work paycheck to paycheck to survive, and the "Fastlane" way of thinking that breaks away from the norm of the typical "Go to school, get a job, save your money, retire at 65." mindset. Very interesting read on how to achieve wealth through changing your way of thinking.

Sex God Method by Daniel Rose: Now that you're learning how to be dominate in your life, learn how to be dominate in bed. The best way to keep a woman around is by knowing what you're doing in the bedroom and giving her the ride of her life. This will honestly give you everything you need, very psychologically as well.

Bang by Roosh V: Since we're on the topic of sex, here is a very practical guide that should be read after reading Models by Mark Manson. Very detailed and to the point on how to get laid.

The Game by Neil Strauss: This one is a fun break from the rest. There is a lot more stories and comparatively light reading to the others. This is what got me interested in the whole PUA scene and led me to TRP. This one's a true story about a guy who goes from total beta to one of the most notorious PUA in the scene. Pretty fun read, definitely a good break from the theory. Old PUA material, but I still use "The Cube" from time to time. That shit's gold.

The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People by Stephen Covey: Learn about and pick up the habits that have made people successful. Covey pinpoints and gives clear examples of habits that a person inhibits that helps them achieve success in any goal they're setting. Incredibly useful for ones who seem to have no motivation or start out strong in a goal and soon sputter out.

The Art of War by Sun Tzu: Sun Tzu and his infinite wisdom isn't just applicable to war but to every day circumstances. Such a good read, most recommended.

The Way of The Superior Man by David Deida: This book dives deep into man's deepest inhibitions and desires. Deida tells you how to take control of yourself as a man and learn to master work, women, and yourself. A lot of straight forward red pill advice on how to live your life as a fully satisfied man.

The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene: Models was the sneak preview of psychology of social dynamics between men and women. He lays everything out on the table with fantastic examples and stories. He helps you dive deep into your inner conscious and realize and recognize the behaviors that you exhibit and the ones you hope to obtain. The Art of Seduction will push you into the deep end of the pool. Greene dives straight into the psychology of sexuality, desire, and interaction between men and women and fully explains why a lot of RedPill concepts work as they should.

48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene: Be careful with this book. It will go deep into the many different dynamics of power and how it is obtained, used, and manipulated. This will teach you and make you aware of all the things going on around you and make you read between the lines of people. You will arm yourself with the knowledge to be able to read people who are trying to manipulate you or others, gain power, or cause cause. Or you can be the one doing those things with the techniques presented in the book.

Mastery by Robert Greene: A user suggested reading this book in the beginning phase and reading it once again at the end, which I think is a terrific idea. The book to help you tie all the concepts together. Like most of his works; a lot of examples and concepts on how to bring everything together in your life and master anything you set your mind out to. It will take everything you have learned and will learn and presents it in a bigger picture in helping you find your most ultimate purpose and mastering it.

That's all for now.

Note: Experience will always be king. Reading should always be used as a supplementary guide.

tldr: Don't be a lazy fuck, read.
