Which books are you currently reading?

Feel free to answer

I'm a few chapters into English classic, Ivanhoe. It's not holding my interest yet, a few chapters in.

I see you, giggle face. [there was giggle icon, it vanished, oh well]

When I got into English literature, I read Middlemarch by George Eliot. I was neutral through the first 80 pages, then I caught on. It was my favorite novel ever, long, 1000 ppg.

I read mostly non-fiction and since I am interested in a lot of medical stuff, nothing that is a page turner or interesting for this forum... but I do have a couple of suggestions of books that have stuck in my mind over the years.

1. In Praise of Slowness by Carl Honore
2. The Shallows by Nicholas Carr

None, sadly. I used to read tons of books, but the problem is I got so much into them that I'd forget to do really important things that I had to do. So I sorta went cold Turkey on books.

I'm curious if you may like Into thin air, by Jon Krakauer. It's his first person account of the tragic Mount Everest expedition in 1996.

I might... Like I said, I only really read non-fiction... Thanks for the recommendation.

Girl Gangs, Biker Boys, And Real Cool Cats (it's about all sorts of cheesy vintage paperbacks!)

6 X H by Heinlein

Usually I use texts only as resources for research, scavenging obscure lemmas or methods, but recently I've been on a Magnolia Hammerson kick:
1. Derrida's Ghosts: Haunted Machinery and Spectral Linguistics
2. The Solarpunk Singularity: Accelerationism meets Ecology in the Sixth Mass Extinction
3. The Hyperstitional Machine: A Cybernetic Gothic of Pandemonium

The Last Straw

Guess the book

I am reading Maze Runner for the 1st time right now
