Re: August!
I finished Never Let Me Go (maybe not what it's called) by Kazuo Ishiguro (?). It was ok. It had great promise at the beginning but then it just kind of never went anywhere.
Re: August!
I finished "The Organized Mind". It was pretty interesting but also kind of boring.
Now I'm reading "Never Let Me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro. I'm not very far into it yet.

Re: July!
I really like Linwood Barclay. I have fond memories of when he used to write a humor column for my local paper.
Re: July!
I finished Atomic Habits and it had some good tips but I'm too lazy to put most of them into practice.
Now I'm reading "The Organized Mind" about how our minds keep track of information and how to leverage that to be organized. I'm already pretty organized but I could be better.

Re: June!
I forgot to post that I finished Where The Heart Is by Billie Letts and really quite enjoyed it. That was maybe 4-5 days ago, not sure.
Now I'm reading Atomic Habits by James Clear.

I finished Rogue Lawyer by John Grisham. It was pretty crappy. Though I did sort of like the ending.
Now I'm reading "Where the Heart Is" by Billie Letts. So far, so good.

Re: May!
I finished Project Hail Mary. Absolutely loved it. Best book I've read in years.
Now I'm reading "Rogue Lawyer" by John Grisham. Not even in the same ballpark, LOL.

Re: May!
I finished What the Psychic Told the Pilgrim and wasn't a big fan.
Now I'm reading Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir and loving it so far (though I do have a bit of trouble suspending my disbelief).

I only read the first one but I also liked it.

Re: April! (the month not the person)
Mr Mercedes was not horribly violent, for the most part. There was some, but not a great deal. I probably will read the whole trilogy but not all at once. I'm now reading "What the Psychic told the Pilgrim" which is a non-fiction about a woman walking the Camino de Santiago. Which is the s...

Kenneth fixed it, I'm back in business. Woo!
Almost done with Mr Mercedes. Would recommend. It's really quite compelling.

Re: April! (the month not the person)
My library DRM stripper has stopped working. My method for reading books was to put them on hold at the library, then when they come in, I borrow them and strip the DRM so there's no time limit to read them. Then after I read them, I delete them. It's a bit shady but not horrible. But now it's not w...
Re: March!
I started reading Mr Mercedes by Stephen King. So far, it's okay.
Re: March!
I finished Into Thin Air last night. Man, what a story. I don't know what I'll read next.
Re: March!
I'm reading "Into Thin Air" by Jon Krakauer, non-fiction about climbing Everest.
Re: February!
I never finished Habit Swap, because I read before bed, and after I got through the first little bit, it told me to meditate. I can't meditate in bed. And I can't seem to motivate myself to read the book outside of bed, so I guess I'll never swap my habits. After that happened, I switched to "T...
Re: February!
I finished "The Good Daughter" by Karin Slaughter. It was OK. I was interested to see what would happen. And one of the characters had a cat named Fosco, which is what our old cat was named. I never heard of any other cat called Fosco so I thought that was fun. Now I'm reading "Habit ...

Re: January 2022!
I don't remember! I definitely read Jurassic Park, but I browsed through his bibliography and I can't really remember which ones I read anymore. I was thinking Congo and Prey sounded familiar, and maybe also Timeline. But it was so long ago.
