Finished reading: Bea Wolf by Zach Weinersmith 📚

I forgot I had pre-ordered this. It arrived today and I devoured it in one sitting. It is a joy to read.

Finished reading: Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin 📚

Yes it is as good as everyone says.

Finished reading: All Systems Red by Martha Wells 📚

Finished reading: Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson 📚

I enjoyed this book. It’s different than the other Sanderson books I’ve read, in the best possible way. After you’ve read it, or at least started it, check out this video on fluidization (mild spoilers).

Finished reading: Mornings on Horseback: The Story of an Extraordinary Family, a Vanished Way of Life and the Unique Child Who Became Theodore Roosevelt by David McCullough 📚

Finished reading: The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson 📚

Finished reading: Mistborn: The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson 📚

Wow, that was fun.

I did not know that Shantaram was being made into an AppleTV series (starting this Friday!). I loved this book and hope the show does it justice. 📚

Finished reading: Termination Shock: A Novel by Neal Stephenson 📚

Finished reading: The Every by Dave Eggers 📚

Ouch. A blistering satire of tech and surveillance that hit pretty close to home.

Buy it directly from McSweeney’s to get one of the randomized covers.

Finished reading: Attack Surface by Cory Doctorow 📚

Finished reading: The Way of Kings: Book One of the Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson 📚

About 900 pages in I was thinking “this is good, but it could be a lot shorter”, then the story took off and all the setup was worth it. 8/10⭐️

I’m really looking forward to Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman. It’s out next week and here’s an excerpt from The Guardian 📚

Finished reading: Reborn in the USA: An Englishman’s Love Letter to His Chosen Home by Roger Bennett 📚

I enjoyed reading about the 80s culture of my childhood through the eyes of someone not in the US. A fun read, especially if you’re a Men in Blazers fan.

Finished reading: The Art of the National Parks by Fifty-Nine Parks 📚

This is a gorgeous book of the Fifty-Nine Parks poster series. Each park gets a two page spread of the poster and a writeup about the park. I really enjoyed it.
