New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) plugged FBI Director Kash Patel’s book on the “deep state” at the end of his remarks reacting to the corruption case against him officially being dropped.

Unlike most of the books on this list, Kash Patel didn’t write a self-help book – though maybe it has served as one for Adams. It seems like “Get Stuff Done” is a motto that also inspires Adams’ reading choices. In a recent post on X, the mayor recommended a book that examines the skills and choices required to unlock your full potential.
