I am reading the first book of the series Empire of the Moghul right now.
Classified as historical fiction, it is very interesting to see how the kingdoms evolved and spread in Central Asia.

Segans " The Demon Haunted World"
Star By Star. Reading through the old EU New Jedi Order books again. The old EU is the best part of Star Wars.
Sins of Empire by Brian McClellan
My notes for the next exam... Before that I was reading the Amaranthe series by G. S. Jennsen. I just finished the first three books which make up a trilogy of their own and don't want to start the sequel trilogy until exams are over because I have no self control
Pride and Prejudice, it's fine so far
Shrines of Gaiety by Kate Atkinson. Recommend if you like historical fiction & the 20s.
Reading: Everything is Under Control by Robert Anton Wilson Listening: Galaxy Outlaws: The Complete Black Ocean Mobius Missions by J.S. Morin, Mikael Naramore (Narrator)
Douglas Adams Starship Titanic: A Novel by Terry Jones
I think that is the official title. It's set inside the wider Hitchhikers universe, but so far hasn't touched on the events of that series.
Did take my a fair bit of time to get Into it, but as I approach the halfway point it's definitely got me.
Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. Actually I'm at 52%. The reason I stopped because of exams
Empire of Ivory by Naomi Novik.
Dark Age by Pierce Brown, part of the Red Rising series
Actual reading: Dune. listening to: [The Wanderers by Chuck Wendig](Listen to Wanderers by Chuck Wendig on Audible. https://www.audible.com/pd/198489174X?source_code=ASSORAP0511160007)
Ministry for the Future. So good, so painful.
The latest Thrawn book
I haven’t started it yet but my next book is The Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds.
Within the last month or two I’ve read Song of Achilles, The Women Could Fly, The Book Eaters, and Babel. I’d recommend all of them, especially Babel.
Engine Summer by John Crowley. I'm only about 100 pages in, but liking it so far.
Rereading Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné, so I can read the new book, The Citadel of Forgotten Myths. Been a few moments since I did a full reread.
I have Greg Egan's Scale and John Shirley's Stormland next on the tsundoku.
The Bayern Agenda by Dan Moren. It’s decent. Wouldn’t say it’s my favorite yet and I’m halfway through. There’s a lot of talking in rooms for a political action sci-fi series. Pace is a bit slow for my taste.
Advanced Marathoning
The Book That Wouldn’t Burn by Mark Lawrence
The Fight Club, I can't get myself to finish it, knowing how it ends because of the movie does not help either.
I don't know if it counts as "in the middle", but I left off reading a book about heaven 8 had borrowed from my mom before I lost religion, and completely lost interest in it.
Don't think I'll ever go back, but that's the book I left unfinished. Haven't read anything in years. I was big on audiobooks for a while before I couldn't afford audible anymore.
Used to have a job that I could listen while I worked on my own and because of that I was able to go through a bunch of them.
One I get through my current medical condition (probably a few years off) and I go back to work, I hope I get another job like that.
The enterprise of death, it's a fun read
I'm reading a few actually: Capital volume 2 by Marx, The Tondrakian Movement by Vrej Nersessian, and Primavera con una esquina rota by Mario Benedetti
I am Pilgrim - Terry Hayes & Cell - Stephen King
