re: What are you reading?

Let us know how that one is. I love a good English history book.

Also jumping on this train.

Bluegrass, Execution is the 6th book in a series. The main character, Giodorno Bruno, is a philosopher turned spy (Walsingham) who is also deemed heretic navigating his way through the Tudor Dynasty. I don't know if you're familiar with C. J. Samson's Shardlake series but the two are similar. I recommend both.

I got a lot out of Atomic Habits. Definitely helped me change a few things last year. Hope it helps you too!

Reading Asimov’s Foundation.

Really enjoying it.

My dad bought and read the Foundation series in the 80's when I was a little kid. I guess I wanted to be like dad, so I picked up the first one after he was on one of the later titles. I was captivated by the cover art of the paperback Del Rey editions. Anyway, I was about 9, it was way over my head. I read and re-read the first dozen pages before finally accepting that this was beyond my abilities. I still have the books though, gonna give it a go when it feels right.

Currently reading:
1. The Book of the Subgenius by the Subgenius Foundation
2. How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive by John Muir
3. Ernie's War (WWII correspondence of Ernie Pyle) edited by David Nichols
4. Becoming a Supple Leopard by Dr. Kelly Starrett & Glen Cordoza
5. Atomic Habits by James Clear - just picked this up from the library yesterday morning.

When I read fiction I tend to only read 1 book at a time, but I can't resist the urge to read several different things at once when it's non-fiction or technical/reference.

I've been on a big Blake Crouch kick lately (I've read 11 of his books, still have a few more to go), can anyone familiar with his work suggest a similar author?

East of Eden for the first time, it is fantastic.

John Grisham’s “A Time to Kill.”
