“A lesson from @jeffiel in his book Ask Your Developer: He worked at 3 small startups. Before founding Twillio, he felt he needed to see what a ?big? tech company is like and joined Amazon & learned TONS. Can?t recommend this enough. Working at Uber had a similar effect on me.”

Consider 11/22/63 by Stephen King. Recommended by 4 sources.
“Starts as a lean, suspenseful time-travel premise that quickly settles into an immersive, character-focused saga. Its chief useful part is the way everyday 1960s small-town life and personal relationships make the historical stakes feel immediate; the novel rewards readers who relish atmosphere and slow moral puzzles. The main limitation is length and digressions—long domestic passages and episodic subplots stretch the middle and can undercut urgency for readers who wanted a tighter thriller.”
