    Pompeii, the life of a Roman Town, by Mary Beard. About halfway through and loving it, very engaging and accessible, and I love that it focuses on the everyday life of regular people.

    Relics, by Tim Lebbon. Barely started it so no opinion to give.

    Currently reading Been Shapiros How To Destroy America In Three Easy Steps.

    I listen to his podcast a lot recently and decided to give it a shot. Now to far into it ( I have a 5 year old son, that needs my attention. 😜) But so o far I'm enjoying it.

    Martin Caidin's 1968 The God Machine.

    I don't recommend it. It isn't terrible...It is sci-fi ish--focused on the creation of a massive AI that (probably, hasn't happened yet) will decide humanity must die. Or at least the chauvanists who created it... I think Caidin was aiming for high brow technological thriller?

    On par for 60's sci fi. I think The Coming of the Quantum Cat (which I read because of the title) was more entertaining but also more ridiculous.

    War and Peace! I had just read The Brothers Karamazov and loved it, and I wanted to go back to Tolstoy for a bit :blush:

    You can watch her too on YouTube if you are interested in ancient roman history.

    Four Past Midnight - Stephen King

    It's a little different, but so far I like it. Just started the second novella of it. :)

    Yay, book people! I love us. I just finished Warrior Soul by Chuck Pfarrer. I like seals. I like adventure. I like badasses. Next one up is the Beach. Yes I know all about Leo DiCaprio movie. It’s the first thing I hear when I say I’m reading it.

    The Devil Amongst the Lawyers by Sharyn McCrumb.

    She had me with Bimbos of the Death Sun and The PMS Outlaws...because who can resist titles like that?!? But she's actually a very good writer.

    I'm reading Thomas Hardy for the first time, this year. Tess of the d'Urbervilles is my favorite so far & probably one of the best books I've ever read.

    Oh my gosh. Tess is one of my favourites! The tragedy. I’m ridiculously excited. Feel free to DM me and tell me what you think!

    PS: BBC did mini series of it a out 10 years ago and it’s pretty good.
