What BOOK are you reading right now?

None anymore <sigh> I have found that I go back to read and forget what I read before. Then, after I review, I've had enough. No endurance. I use to read 5 or 6 books a month, a lot of time - more!

I’m reading Bob Dylan’s autobiography Chronicles Volume I.

Zipped through the first half where he describes his first days in Greenwich Village meeting all the wild and zany characters that made up the folk scene.

Got mired in the second half where he goes on and on about how he wasn’t the savior of the same folk scene.

Bob Dylan wrote an autobiography? Who's it about?

A good and beautiful book, I also found a lot of interesting things here

It's weirdly about former US President William Howard Taft.

Elephants and hens.

Sorry, The Elephant and the Balloon.

Updating my list of books read since my previous post back in midDecember.

Finished The Golden Tresses of the Dead (Flavia de Luce #10) by Bradley, Alan. Love this series though this, the latest book seemed kind of rushed to the publisher. Still enjoyable.

Homesick for Another World: Book of well written short stories about really repugnant monstrous, unlikable people. By Moshfegh, Ottessa Can't recommend.

Norse Mythology by Gaiman, Neil. One can easily see Neil's personality through his interpretation of the Norse myth stories. But I didn't really enjoy them like I would his original fare.

Rosewater by Thompson, Tade. A great original work of science fiction and the opening volley to what should be a necessary read trilogy (regardless of whether one is into science fiction or not).

Impossible Fortress (on sale on Audible) Rekulak, Jason Stephen King's Stand By Me ... but takes place in the 80s and the dead body is a Playboy Magazine and our protagonist is a nerdy video game programmer/prodigy.

All Systems Red (The Murderbot Diaries, #1) (sci-fi novella that could be allegory for slavery) by Wells, Martha

Giant Days: Not On the Test Edition Vol. 1, 2, and 3 by Allison, John. I can't get enough of cheeky, slice of life graphic novels like this.

Tales from the Inner City by Tan, Shaun (surrealist illustrated book of short stories)

Royal City, Vol. 1: Next of Kin: Can't recommend this critically praised dirty, gloomy, dysfuctional family drama based graphic novel with no likable characters to be seen.

Just finished "Summer for the Gods" (about the Scopes Trial) and a new genre by Mark Bowden, Its called "the Last STone", Its a non-fiction cold case about a murder that went 30 years unsolved. Bowden is a great word craftsman. The detective that solved the case is a goddam creative genius.

Early on in A Long Way Home, Memoir of A Boy Soldierby Ismail Beah

Dreading it.

Currently reading "Flies in the Punch Bowl" by Erika Simms. Before that, "Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole.

I love to read Biopic books, Nowadays I am reading "WINGS OF FIRE", based on a life of Dr A P J Abdul Kalam.

"A Confederacy of Dunces" is one of my favorite books. Hope you liked it!

I read a manga book and I read kuroshitsuji manga here I recommended reading this manga. This is one of the best.

Andrea Camilleri -- creator of the commissario Montalbano character -- passed away yesterday, at the tender age of 93.

Short stories by Ted Chiang

The Spy in Moscow Station: A Counterspy's Hunt for a Deadly Cold War Threat by Eric Haseltine

Your post reminded me of my visit to Moscow. Did you know that their subway stations are really beautiful and each one is unique? https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?hspart=pty&hsimp=yhs-pty_converter&param2=59b60d0b-7323-44a1-abc2-1f111a0429b0&param3=converter_~US~appfocus1&param4=g-ccc3-lp0-cp_1744376776-bb8-sfnt~Safari~photos+of+moscow+subway+stations+near~D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E&param1=20190529&p=photos+of+moscow+subway+stations+near&type=1744376776 Our tour director took us to a subway station, and took us on a short ride. I'm glad we had that experience. I think on that trip, it was a cruise on the Volga River from Moscow to St Petersburg.
