What are you reading right now?

Chuck33079 · 03-18-2014, 01:03 PM

This may go over like a fart in church, but I figured we've got at least a couple of readers in the group. I'm almost caught up on my reading list, so throw out some suggestions.

Here's where I'm at right now-
Finishing up James S A Corey's second Expanse novel
Put A Song of Ice and Fire on hold until GRRM gets off his *** or the TV show catches up to me

What's everybody else reading?

Non stop technical stuff for work. Often interesting, but mostly done for work - science or policy. Last book I read for fun was on human migrations out of Africa and across the planet. Lots of interesting stuff, but nerdy.

Yeah, I've got a ton of stuff to read for work at all times, but Ive been making an effort this year to get at least a chapter a day of something I'm reading for pleasure.

I must agree....not many people actually read anymore. Despite what Amazon Kindle owners say.

Chuck33079 · 03-18-2014, 03:19 PM

Yeah, I knew there wouldn't be a huge turnout for this one.

And i love my Kindle.

Reading this on Kindle: Winning Autocross Techniques (Speed Secrets): Per Schroeder, Ross Bentley: 9780760331569: Amazon.com: Books Less than 10 days left for 2014 season

Currently, I'm reading the Foundation series (on Foundation's Edge) and a series called "The Spellmonger Series".

Chuck33079 · 03-19-2014, 08:18 AM

I'll have to track both of those down.

exsanity · 03-19-2014, 08:21 AM

The Foundation Series (Isaac Asimov) is a tough read. I feel like every character in the series is a thousand times smarter than I am, just because of Asimov's writing style. I do love my Kindle though.

Yeah, I remember giving one of them a shot a long, long time ago and not getting into it. The same with the Rama books. Now that I'm not 12 and can handle a book that takes its time getting to the point, I may enjoy them more.

SouthArk370Z · 03-19-2014, 08:55 AM

Asimov is in the Top 10 on my Favorite Writers List. He was one of the most prolific and diverse writers I've seen. Text books, Sci-fi, ribald humor, mysteries, ...

I wouldn't have been able to enjoy Asimov as a child either, but I love his writing now, I can't put the books down.
