I am currently reading the Laws of Human Nature. Interesting but extremely long. Just finished Am I Being Too Subtle by Sam Zell

Just finished Walter Isaacson's biography of Einstein.

Don't do it.

Just finished “Long Range” by CJ Box. The latest in the Joe Pickett series. Very entertaining. If you haven’t read them, start with “Open Season”.

Book? What is this book you speak of? Are those still around?

Just finished "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". Pretty insightful. Made me realize how much my spending habits were out of line especially during this time..

Ha ha...oh yeah

All the Shahs Men this reveals the madness behind the american orchestrated 1952 Iran coup, what I like most about this book is that maintained a steady neutrality throughout.

Water Knife 2/3 finished, I find myself drinking more water than usual and appreciating it.

Barbarian Days by William Finnegan - Great memoir has it all: coming of age, adventure, obsession. Great book even if you don't surf (I don't), must read if you do.

Coddling of the American Mind is a must read to understand cancel culture, colleges and their snowflakes.

I used to love reading so much back in the day, all into fiction and stuff like that. Hadn’t gotten into any good books for a few years.

But, this year and this month...I’ve been reading non-stop, well listening and reading since I’m doing a lot of testing and assembly at work. My buddies got me into Brandon Sanderson books and they’re quite a ride. I also dug into more Orson Scott Card(Ender’s game) universe built around Ender.

I cannot rave about Brandon Sanderson enough! I’ve read through his stormlight books 1,2 and 3 as well as the novellas in between and listened to all of his original trilogy Mistborn books just this year. Can’t put them down. Super deliberate character development (slow at times) but it’s all for good reason in the end. These are massive books 1,500 or so pages...

So just this past month:
Audio:
- Earth Unaware (Orson Scott card)
- Earth Afire (Orson Scott Card)
- Ready Player 2 (Ernest Cline)
- Golden Son (Pierce Brown)
Book:
- Oathbringer (Brandon Sanderson) finished it!
- Dawnshard (Brandon Sanderson)

read that again myself last week. such a great revisit
knocked out animal farm yesterday for the 3rd full read.
bout to break open Into The Heart Of Darkness by Joseph Conrad this week. First time

Didn't read any new ones, but I did finish the rough draft of my own first novel.

Finally read 1984.

Denial of objective reality
Mutability of the past
Newspeak
Big Brother

In these times it's more relevant than ever.

Never Split the Difference

The Art of Business War

Recommend both for professional reasons but Chris Voss' insights and experience in Never Split the Difference apply to many aspects of 'negotiation' in life.

I could also recommend Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking by Chris Hadnagy and The Truth Detector by Dr Jack Schafer if you are in sales or like spy/espionage and SE

If you are in sales, The Challenger Sale is a must read, too

Always reading something, usually in the Sci-fi genre as wide reaching as that is. Waiting on Kurt Schlichter's next couple of books including 'We'll be back." which is non-fiction.
