The Bicentennial Man and Other Stories by Isaac Asimov. One of the many collections of short stories that originally appeared in periodicals of the 1950's-1970's.

His exploration of an intuitive AGI through a misogynistic lens of the late 1960's in Feminine Intuition was interesting.

The story Waterclap, about the struggles of an engineer from Lunar City on the moon against the deep sea colony of Ocean-Deep with a tone of social commentary about conspiracy and lack of long term human planning were also interesting perspectives to ponder, especially when considering this was written in 1969.

84K by Claire North. It's a dystopian novel about corporatization of government.

At first glance that might sound generic, but she's an incredible writer, and really makes the world she created come alive.

The Stone Sky by N. K. Jemisin. This is the 3rd book in the Broken Earth series, which have all been fun to read.

I’m finishing up Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik today and will start Kill the Farm Boy by Kevin Herne and Delilah S. Dawson. It’s the last item for my r/Fantasy BINGO card I started last year and due before April 1st.

Lunatics by Dave Barry and Alan Zweibel.

It's funny so far.

We just started the audiobook of Peter B Brett's The Warded Man. I had read it before, but it's my Lady's first time with it.

I remember tiring of the series eventually, but I also think there were fewer books back then. So far it's thoroughly entertaining.

"You Have the Right To Remain Innocent", by James Duane. He also has had a few very famous videos on YouTube, which can best be summed up as, "Under advice from counsel, I am invoking my fifth amendment right to remain silent. I want an attorney."

I am now undistracted and back to slowly trudging through Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I'm about 80% of the way through. Everyone's dead and Kong Ming's just captured and released some dude like 7 times.

The most recent interesting ones have been The Age of Deer(all about deer in North America from a social perspective), scarcity brain(how our brains seem rigged for gambling and how it affects our lives) and WordSlut(gender politics and how it interacts with language).

I've never been much into reading fiction, but would love good human-adjacent(ie not particle physics) nonfic recommendations.

I'm listening to The Glass Hotel by Emily St John Mandel and American Prometheus by Kai Bird and Martin J Sherwin

Did some re-reading of Anna Karenina and Pride and Prejudice. Now reading George Orwells "Homage to Catalonia", his memoir of his time as a volunteer against the fascists in the Spanish civil war. I'm about a third of the way in and so far it has been quite enjoyable, but I am hoping for some more politics later on; right now it is mostly about the situation on the front.

I just finished theSword of justice series and am now on Way of the shadows series!

I have been recommended: Runelord, earthsea, and Dark fever series too. I would highly recommend Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson. Great world building and I especially love how he writes the MCs curiosity and problem solving

Im reading berserk for pleasure and state and revolution for education

Listening to Sexual Politics (1969) by Kate Millett.

There's a part in chapter 2 (her theory of sexual politics) that, essentially, encapsulates the wedge we are witnessing now, 55 years later.

It's wild that concepts and the attendant issues of sex, sexuality, gender, patriarchy, and human rights were so clearly described in the late 60s.

I’ve just finished Act of Oblivion by Robert Harris and now I’m on The Ferryman, by Justin Cronin.

Just started The Wheel of Time book 6, Lord of Chaos. Still enjoying this series but do wish Robert Jordan was less wordy sometimes. The prologue alone in this book was 50 pages.

This week I started Beware of Chicken by Casual Farmer. It has been very enjoyable so far!
