Would you like to share your current reading list?

I just finished Never Flinch- one of Stephen King’s Holly books. Was good.

Currently reading Knife- Salman Rushdie’s book about his attack.

I think Catch-22 is next. I’ve never read it.

I tried Dungeon Crawler Carl but gave up on about page 16.

My son gave me a book called How to Live with Objects. I tend to pick it up when I want something non-scrolling. It’s pretty good.

    I just finished two books, and your post was the first thing that popped up when I opened lemmy, what ahappy lil coincidence! The Stephen King one sounds interesting, what’s your favorite? I quite enjoyed the one about the apocalypse (forgot the name)

    The books I finished are: A prayer for the crown-shy by Becky Chambers (Cozy second part of a nice little Solarpunk novel, the first one is really nice too)

    Shards of the earth by Adran Tchaikovsky (A not so cozy but gripping first part of a Sci Fi trillogy about a mysterious Alien invasion of god like world destroyers)

    Thanks for the posts, If you like give some recommendations, I read the Knife too, moved me to teats that one.

    Edit: “The Stand” is the King book I meant.

      I started reading Stephen King in high school in the 80s. One of my favs is Dead Zone. I also really like his books of short stories- it’s nice to start one and finish it in a day or two. My husband loves the Dark Tower series.

      I’m enjoying Knife. Did you see that they just added years to the attacker’s sentence for terrorism? After this i think I’ll read The Satanic Verses.
