[OT] What are you reading?

The Witcher: The Last Wish.

The basis for at least portions of The Witcher TV series.

Next on the list is a re-read of Sanderson's Mistborn series, because I just picked up books 4 through 6 of the series.

Just finished John Grisham's "Sparring Partners" I have to say I was very disappointed, that's a first for me with a book by Grisham.

I like to go back and reread some old favorites about every 10 years or so and that's what I have been doing the last couple of months. I just finished Faulkner's "The Sound and the Fury" yesterday. I'm planning to start Kerouac's "On the Road" in the next couple of days.

Before I started back on my old favorites I had just finished David Baldacci's "Will Robie" series.

I love anything college football so I’ve been reading about Beano Cook’s life story. His life revolved around Pittsburgh sports.

The Splendid and the Vile by Erik Larson.

Ils disent que je suis une beurette by soraya nini

I also read Stephen King books a lot. Yall would like the sex scene at the end of It lulz

Speaking of nerdy stuff….

Rather than late night reading, I’ve discovered MIT Open Couseware. Some nights I’ll be in bed with my laptop and listen to lectures, mainly Econ, lately

MIT's open coursework is great. This might interest you:

I just finished The Intelligent Investor by Benjaman Graham recommended to me by the Juice Mane

25 - I found Grisham to be much less interesting after I started reading Scott Turow's books.

Hah! Our resident dick pic collector reads Dr Seuss. Sort of explains his fantasy postings here doesn't it!

Re-reading the Foundation trilogy by Asimov. Tried watching the new mini series and it sucked so bad, I had to go back to the book.

i’m reading comic books. and the hamb. some tj sites. oh… yeah. tuscl. haven’t picked up a book for months.

Just read “The Hangman’s Wife” about the Nazi demon war criminal Reinhard Heydrich who was assassinated in occupied Prague in 1942. Incredibly researched historical biography, but not for the faint of heart.

Reading “Pandemia” by Alex Berenson. A lot of the “science” that was politicized and preached about, wasn’t very good science and was actually wrong.

Thanks Ish - I’m always looking for good new sci fi (I read all the classics and then some). I’ll check out The Quantum Magician.

For light reading, Fredrick Backman's books: Bear Town, Anxious People and A Man Called Ove. Well written, witty and good, quirky story lines.

"Use of Weapons," Iain M Banks. I fucking love the Culture novels, almost as much as Discworld.

Quantum Magician was very good, the sequel decent. I just finished To sleep in a nest of stars by Paulini. Very well done although I didn't love it
