I read The Violin Conspiracy by Brendan Slocumb and it was fantastic

I’ve been on a memoir kick. Specifically women celebrities. I just finished Mean Baby by Selma Blair and it was good. I’m about to start Hello Molly by Molly Shannon.

The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches

The Poet by Michael Connelly

Death's End by Liu Cixin

Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:Re. A decade late but I loved it.

Just finished re-reading all of the pre-Disney Star Wars novels. I'm into Patrick O'Brian's standalone novels now, starting with "The Unknown Shore".

Just finished reading Waybound, the 12th and final book in the Cradle series by Will Wight.

The Hunger of the Gods by John Gwynne.

I just finished The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your Home by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor. I've kind of half-followed Welcome to Night Vale for years and enjoyed all the books so far.

I'm currently reading House of Leaves. This is my second attempt, after making it about halfway a few years ago. It's a great book, but a challenging read because it's dense and shifts context frequently. I find that the context-switching adds to the unsettling feel that the book is going for, but it's definitely not for everyone.

Last I finished: A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian

Currently reading: The Witcher: The Last Wish (for the second time)

The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of Their Lost World - Steve Brusatte

"GOD: An Anatomy" by Francesca Stavrakapoulou.

"An astonishing and revelatory history that re-presents God as he was originally envisioned by ancient worshippers—with a distinctly male body, and with superhuman powers, earthly passions, and a penchant for the fantastic and monstrous."

Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis

somewhat interesting and in the same vein as the Barsoom/Mars books by Burroughs but more preachy and less action.

It was on the "free" pile at the library.

It was called “Drunk” and was about human’s history with inebriates with an emphasis on alcohol. For a book on booze it was incredibly dry and while the author made some decent points he tended to just repeat them over and over again.

The last new book I read was Ready Player One.

The last book I've read in general was At The Mountains of Madness for the umpteenth time.

A. Das and T. Ferbel -Introduction to Nuclear and Particle Physics.

It was an interesting book but a horrible experience in general. I gotta finish this degree

I'm chewing my way through the stormlight archives by Bryan Sanderson. Just finished book 2.5, on book 3 now.

fiasco by stanislav lem.

Herb Mertz, The Selection Effect.

5th book of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, currently reading. Before that I read the 4th book.

The Gate of the Feral Gods; Book 4 of recently 6 of the Dungeon Crawler Carl LITRPG series by Matt Dinniman. It's been an absolute blast so far, and I highly recommend the series if you like some combination of tabletop RPGs, cats, death games, or explosions.

I just finished Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. It was okay, though I don't think it lived up to the hype for me. I actually preferred Klara and the Sun to this one, though still worth a read.
