I’m almost finished with book 7 of the Expanse series. It’s a good sci-fi series and book 8 comes out in March!

For fun:
Shogun by James Clavell

I’m not typically into historical fiction, but I couldn’t put this one down.

For semi-work-related:
Data and Goliath by Bruce Schneier (or anything by Bruce Schneier)

Bruce explains things very matter-of-factly. I like how he describes the balance between keeping your personally identifiable information private versus participating in a technology-driven society that collects data on practically everything you do. He provides practical examples for people concerned about their privacy, and provides funny (scary?) examples of questionable things our data is being used for.

Richard Branson’s Finding My Virginity: The New Autobiography is my latest focus quite inspiring as a business leader while you are being caught up with customer detail.

It’s cheating a bit as it’s technically a collection of short stories (though all on the same topic and by the same authour, so they stitch together quite nicely): A Bee Stung Me, So I Killed All the Fish (Notes from the Homeland, 2003-2006)

I love it because it combines so much into so few pages. It’s satirical, it has my broken sense of humour, and to the authour’s unending credit, each short story is written in a different style, which as a non-writer I imagine is astoundingly difficult to pull off.

Just finished this series and absolutely loved it! Really interesting concept and situations.

Picking just one is so hard! Maybe I can cheat a bit and pick an author: Blake Crouch.

Dark Matter, Recursion, and the Wayward Pines series were all so much fun to read!

Best is a difficult question to answer, but I’m a big fan of Creighton. Jurassic Park was the first, and most impactful, of his that I read.

Any Wheel of Time readers here? I’m super excited that Amazon has a WoT miniseries in the works.
