It took me a minute to get above (I'm getting old)....well done sir!!!1

min all seriousness I’ve not run across many series that were page turners like that one. I think I read them all in under two months.

Ironically, the Sandman graphic novels by Neil Gaiman.

i want so badly to say something sarcastic, but i can't get anything together. instead, here is a fish:

For my birthday I got some Audible gift cards and I picked up Mythos by Stephen Fry and he also narrates. It’s absolutely fantastic. If you like Ancient Greek mythology or are just a fan of Fry you’ll love this. The myths are retold with Fry’s wit and humor and it really works well with the subject snd you can tell he has an affection for the stories. My daughter also gets a kick out of it. If you need a break from the news I can’t recommend this high enough.

Since Issac Asamov's Foundation is coming to Apple TV, I figured I'd go ahead and read the series.

Natalie Cole's autobiography Angel On My Shoulder. She'd spoke about her past drug addiction in interviews but I had no idea she was as bad off into drugs as she was. My goodness!

Confederacy of Dunces? Yes, but I hated it.

I will look into Nobody's Fool. Thanks.

I reread CoD late last year. I got 3/4 through and realized I’m just not enjoying reading this. Put it down and moved on.

I typically alternate fiction and nonfiction. Currently reading:

The Karen Memes thread which did take me a while to catch up.

Seriously I have been hooked on space opera for some reason and am currently reading the Renegade Star series. Currently I am on book 14 of 15 in the series, short reads that I can knock out in few hours. I have also been reading the the Honor Harrington series which has quite a few as well.

But the series that I enjoy the most has been The Frontlines by Marko Kloos. To me this is a really good sci-fi series that is grounded in reality. He also has a new series called the Palladium War that is true space opera. His books are the ones that I actually check up on for new releases.

I recently finished Ibram Kendi's "How to be an Antiracist", and now working on "Strangers in Their Own Land". Got this 1 from a podcast Oye posted in some thread somewhere.

I also finished all 3 of Aldous Pennyfarthing's series about the president.
