What are you fuckers reading?

Just finished Celeste Ng's "Everything I Never Told You." It was good but has left me feeling a little emotionally drained.

I started "The Hate U Give" on the plane today, but I think I need a couple days off....or a book with a lighter subject.
 
Stendahl....The Red and the Black.

His 19th century description of first love is amazing; how they did signals, communicated without words. She was at the old age of 30. but "still pretty." He was 20. She had been married for 10 years, had never been in love.

Just started it today.

I loved Harold Fry, I'm interested to hear how you like this one.

I just got it, but haven't started it yet.

I ended up getting both the e-book and audio versions. Loving it so far!
 
I'm reading another Star Wars book.
Darth Plagueis by James Luceno

Its really good.

Still reading this. I really like it a lot. :)

My progress is slow. I read fast but I read everyday for short periods of time. I just don't have the attention span I had when I was young.


Missing Fata. :(:(:(
 
No, I have Octonauts, My little ponies and about a thousand a matchbox cars. Maybe some stray lifesavers, too. 🙄

Strangely enough I wasnt talking about the midget infestation.

Whenever someone gets into my car, I have to move a book from the passenger seat.
 
I had the audio book. I spent a lot longer than normal driving around to finish this one.
It resonated with me on so many levels and had some really beautiful, writing that hit you me right in my core, though felt a little rushed toward the end.

I found the main male character completely loveable, and the other quirky characters fun and adorable. The main female I didn’t really warm to, but it was an easy and really lovely read that aha a lot of beautiful words that have stuck with me.

If you’re into music I would recommend it. If you’re not you may find it a little heavy on the music.

I just happen to have 4 Audible credits to use. Thank you!
 
My biggest fear is to be stuck somewhere with nothing to read. Always a book in the car.

Oh yes I can totally agree, I love my kindle app on my phone, its like having the words largest library in my hand.
I enjoy biographys and books about obscure historical events

I'm still tring to get through Ron Chernow biography of U.S. Grant. Been very fascinating I think he ( the author) paints a great picture of the man and the times he lived in

The book I would recommend to students of American history is... Killers of the Flower Moon, the Osage murders and the birth of the FBI by David Grann.
It was so good, in the 1920's a series of muders of Osage Indians plague a small town in Oklahoma. After the indifference of the local law enforcement and state investigater, the FBI send in under cover agents, some were ex Texas Rangers and others were veteran lawmen from the west.
I could go on and on but I will just say the conclusion of the story and the other crimes and murders that were never investigated and prosecuted, will stay with me for a long time.

I also enjoy novels, I highly recommend the girl with dragon tattoo series, by Stieg Larsson and David Lagercrantz.

I really enjoy the Inspector Banks novels. One the interesting things about these books is his love of music. If not familiar with the bands, singers (operatic and popular) and orchestral pieces I'll look them up on youtube.

Had an uncle who fought in this. He did not like to talk about it much.


And currently reading Baldacci's End Game. I enjoy the Robie series. If only there really existed people like this.

I am in the middle of reading

The Wild Oats Project Robin Rinald It's very eye opening.

I have found myself wondering what might have happened if my Husband would have kept saying no, when I said it was time to have children.
 
this is it. The Wild Oats Project

I am almost finished. Has anyone else read it. I would love to talk to someone about it.

U know Grant wrote his autobiography to raise$ for his wife; he was dying of CA, but many historians say its the best mil biography they have seen. He certainly lived thru it. Not bad for a Yankee....
