Hii, I am trying to get into reading books but don't know what to read. I like programming, tech, DIY stuff and science and would love to read about it.

Which book should I read that is not overwhelming for a begginer like me?

Check out Snowcrash. Not the best book ever written, but is definitely interesting and is a major influence for Mark Zuckerberg. (Which if you do read the book may lead you to think he has very little reading comprehension imo)
