Books

Hey I have The Wager in my list, but right now I'm reading The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber, it's excellent. Going really slow because it contains so much information, I read a few pages and that sends me in a research spiral for an hour and a thoughts spirals for the day.

I'm currently reading Fool's Fate, the third in the Tawny Man trilogy, which itself is the 3rd trilogy in the Realm of the Elderlings sequence by Robin Hobb. I've loved every book so far and this is no exception although

Poor Fitz has had a shit life so far. I'm hoping he gets some sort of happiness before the end of this one.

Working through Perdido Street Station on my new Kobo. I understand the critiques on pacing, and spending too much time on world building as now, 400 pages in, races, sections of the city, creatures, and cultures are still being introduced. But it has been an enjoyable ride so far, especially with one of the main PoVs being one of my favorite tropes of just "scientist doing science"

Just finished rewatching The Magicians, since it's my favorite darker adult magic TV Show. Now I am about to start The Magicians by Lev Grossman to see what it's like. Heard the books are more nihilistic.

I just finished Lieutenant Hornblower and am thoroughly enjoying the series. I’ll be starting Hornblower and the Hotspur soon.

I read The Wager a few months back. I enjoyed it. If you’re looking for something else in that vane you might try Batavia by Peter  FitzSimons.

I am currently rereading Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy. It’s a great read, but a little dark.

Just finished "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow" by Gabrielle Devin and currently reading"The Code Book" by Simon Singh.
