Finished The Stars, Like Dust by Isaac Asimov yesterday. The book is from 1951 and it feels like it - which I love.

Currently reading: Planetside by Michael Mammy. I'm only 17% of the way in but it seems to be a sci-fi set military mystery. It's readable enough so far, but we'll see how I feel when it hits the mystery
Will Save the Galaxy for Food by Yahtzee Crowshaw (the Zero Punctuation/Fully Ramblomatic guy). This series rocks. He absolutely scratches the same itch as Douglas Adams did. Funny, Irreverent, and specifically I love that both will spend a whole page explaining a concept for the payoff to be a third of a sentence joke
Just Finished: Starter Villain by John Scalzi. Like a lot of other Scalzi work, it's funny, doesn't belabor the stuff you don't care about, and isn't fishing for a trilogy. A great vacation read

The Sandman adaptations/audiobooks by Gaiman. Fizzling a bit on the later books, first was solid.

The Desert Spear, book 2 in the Warded Man series.

I'm reading Starve Acre by Andrew Michael Hurley, which is an excellent gothic horror about grief and madness. Starting on Things in Jars by Jess Kidd once I finish tonight.
Stone of Tears by Terry Goodkind. Its book two of the Sword of Truth series. And so far just as engaging as the first.
How The World Works by Paul Cockshot
It examines stages of human history and how they led to capitalism, all the parts and forces involved. It includes influential ideas from people in history that have been proven true and untrue.

I Finished A Psalm for the Wild Built and really enjoyed it now to the second of the scolomance series by Naomi Novik, The Last Graduate.

Had another week of not reading much, so I'm still trying to wrap up On Stranger Tides. It's still enjoyable, but I'm impatient to move onto something new.

Still got that "Your Money Or Your Life" on the burner? I swear it has been a couple of months now ;)
I'm now at the end of Solo Leveling book 7, I've listened to 4, 5, 6 and now 7 within the last week and I'm still looking forward to the last one that is currently out (being 8). It is one of those books I've been listening to at absolutely every opportunity so I will finish what I have very soon.
Then I'm looking forward to a couple more Deathlands books after that I think :D

Armageddon: The Musical, by Robert Rankin. Its weird as hell, but I'm loving it.
