Goodnight Moon

After enough readings of that you'll be ready to move on to "Go the Fuck To Sleep."

 

[vanmyers86]

Just finished "A Better Man," Louise Penny's latest mystery.

Still making my way through "Singled Out," a history by Virginia Nicholson.

That was the BEST!

"...We live today in a time of widespread concern and fascination with technological innovation, the system of networking, and the influence of both on globalization in the twenty-first century..."​

-Peter L. Bernstein
Wedding Of The Waters: The Erie Canal and the Making of a Great Nation
New York, N.Y. 2005.​

​

Peter Bernstein wrote an earlier book Against The Gods: The Remarkable Story of Risk that was highly acclaimed and widely read. His story of the Erie Canal is every bit up to that high standard. Read it; you'll be glad you did.

The Condition of Postmodernity: An Enquiry into the Origins of Cultural Change, David Harvey

The Visual Display of Quantitative Information , Edward Tufte

Press Enter - John Varley

This is a novella published in the May 1984 edition of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine. I recall liking it very much when I first read it, and having bumped into David Brin's The Loom of Thessaly in an earlier edition while looking for his first The Postman novella, here this was again. Amazingly, it has a few typos as well as a few other things I've stumbled over. Nobody's perfect, not even a two-time Hugo winner, but that doesn't stop it from being really really nice. I like to think of that as inspiration.

"Touring the silicone valley," indeed. Yeah, that fits here.

Hitman - Bret Hart

I love wrestling books. The drama behind the curtain often rivals, if not exceeds the stuff staged in the ring. Bret Hart was a huge favourite of mine when I watched taped WWE shows Dad brought home from the video rental store. My brother was more a Hulk Hogan or Macho Man fanboy.

Haven't touched any SF/Fantasy stuff in the past five years. I'm too busy writing my own.

Going back to my youth:

I am reading several novels by Jeffrey Farnol. Many are historical and set in Regency Kent.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffery_Farnol

His works inspired Georgette Heyer who was a much better writer.

 

[BelleCanzuto]

I just finished "Fleishman is in Trouble" by Taffy Brodesser-Anker.
I'm ambivalent about it.

 

[DarkWhispers2U]

I am reading...

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown

It's a vampire story by Holly Black. Honestly, it's taking me ages to get through it.

I just started Anthony Adverse, rereading it and really enjoying.

 

[SynSlave]

R.A. Salvatore. Mostly re-reads. But I've got a batch folder of all Forgotten Realms books up to a few years ago on this device for when im bored. I have to return a couple melanie rawn books i finished (again). And since i mentioned it a few times, ive been searching for one of THREE copies of Dark Beyond the Stars. It's a long, boring story (how i came to own three) and I refuse to buy another!

 

[whowrotethisshit]

I'm reading Mary Louise Parkers book and it's terrific. I've had it for three years and decided to crack it open finally and it's beautiful and.. wonderful.

 

[oggbashan]

I received today from eBay a cheap battered collection of Sir H Rider Haggard novels including some titles I have never read.

They will keep me amused while sitting in hospital waiting rooms.

 

[Hypoxia]

I just put down a letter offering to cremate me at a reasonable price. But it's still warm here so I'd wait till the next blizzard.

 

[BelleCanzuto]

I just started N.K. Jemisin's "Dreamblood Duology"
I've really become a fan of hers.

I just got a car title changed over to my name which required a death certificate from the previous-owner/previous-human. And the burial information was "discount cremation" and I'm still thinking about it.

 

[mynameisben]

I started reading The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway. I've been meaning to read it for a long, long time. It's supposed to be Hemingway's "masterpiece," but I don't think so. So far, all it is is some grouchy expatriate newspaper dude hopping from one French bistro to the next, getting drunk. I got utterly bored with it about a third of the way through it and stopped reading. It's been collecting dust on my coffee table for the last five days.

I'm sure I'll return to it and finish it off. I hate leaving a book partially unread. It's just bound to get better. Right?

Not reading, but listening to "The Valens Legacy" by Jan Stryvant It a series that is an old friend.
