These are the books that early Facebook investor Marc Andreessen thinks everyone should read right now

Marc Andreessen

Silicon Valley investor and once-prolific tweeter Marc Andreessen is back on Twitter with a new avatar — it's a bald Charlie Brown clutching a book — and a summer reading list.

Andreessen, cofounder of buzzy venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, abruptly left Twitter in the fall of 2016, deleting all his tweets after writing, "Taking a Twitter break!"

The early Facebook investor and creator of the first popular web browser had been well known for his authoritative Twitter presence, firing off tweetstorms and retweeting messages about tech, economics, and politics, at all hours of the day. Andreessen has nearly 700,000 followers on the social media site.

Now he's back, if only to share a summer reading list.

He tweeted on Thursday, "Thread: Books I've recently read and recommend."

Here they are:

"Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman (2013)

Andreessen says: "Captivating dive into human decision making, marred by inclusion of several/many? psychology studies that fail to replicate. Will stand as a cautionary tale?"

"Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts" by Annie Duke (2018)

Andreessen says: "Compact guide to probabilistic domains like poker, or venture capital. Best articulation of 'resulting,' drawing bad conclusions from confusing process and outcome. Recommend for people operating in the real world."

"Chasing Hillary: Ten Years, Two Presidential Campaigns, and One Intact Glass Ceiling" by Amy Chozick (2018)

Andreessen says: "On the bus/in the plane with the Hillary campaign. Revealing in many dimensions at once, and highly entertaining. Best book on the 2016 campaign so far?"
