A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes, aka "The Gods Must Be Assholes".

currently reading good omens, enjoying myself very much :] every time i put it down, i get excited to pick it back up again - i don't remember the last time i was that eager to continue reading a book.

I'm reading "Between Two Fires" by Christopher Buehlman. I think medieval horror is a genre that has surpassed my love of folk horror.

Just started Stone Blind by Natalie Haynes, aka The Gods Must Be Assholes, Part 2.

I swear, if Taika Waititi ever takes on Greek mythology, the first movie better be called ZEUS: Rape and Thunder.

I finished up reading Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman a few days ago, and highly recommend anyone to read it. You might think it's a book on productivity, but it's so much more than that - it's a book on how to truly live life.

I'm now reading Calvino's Invisible Cities and enjoy the read so far.

I am currently reading The Maze Runner (The Death Cure), and im really enjoying it!

Currently reading Pure Invention: How Japan Made the Modern World by Matt Alt for a school project. Other than that, I'm reading some books by Sofie Ryan. She writes good cozy mysteries. I also like my fair share of nonfiction too.

Been reading Heavy Time and Hellburner by C. J. Cherryh. Asteroid mining, dirty corporate shenanigans, murder, and cover-ups. They're part of her "Company Wars" sequence. If you've seen The Expanse, the depiction of Belters in that series owe a lot to Cherryh.

I finished the Averroes's Faṣl al-Maqāl and Kashf al-Manāhi. And I should say, i didn't expected that much. I wasn't mind blowing but it was neat and mind-opening. He discusses the bases of the relationship between religion and philosophy and where they should be placed in each other. He is an great Aristotelian so his apporoach to the topic is unique. His methodology is realy precious but not all his ideas and "burhan"s are true. He is realy a bigot when it comes to the Aristotle, so sometimes he can say things that are realy wrong for sake to stay Aristotelian in some topics. Not always, but sometimes he does it. But not knowing that he is wrong but unknowingly doing it couse, like, he realy LOVES the Aristotle. He says that if he was not a Muslim, he would think that the Aristotle is the god of knowledge. In the end of the day, everyone who is interested in philospohy of religion should read it at least multiple times i think.

Im re reading The Hunger Games: Mockingjay for the third time, a couple of days ago I've also re read The Hunger Games, and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

I can't find The Maze Runner prequels anywhere in my language, so I probably going to buy em in english

Slowly reading 'Dracula' by Bram Stocker. Started a few months ago and still hasn't finish It's quite a good book actually, I'm just not very focused!

I have recently been going through the book 'Filters against folly' by Hardin Garrett. Filters Against Folly: How To Survive Despite Economists, Ecologists, and the Merely Eloquent.

Hardin Garrett is known for his ideas of 'Tragedy of the commons' and 'Life boat economics' which has unfortunately labelled his a Eco-fascist. I feel that a large part of this is the factor of Cassandra syndrome - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra_(metaphor) . In talking about the issue that we face, many dislike those that point out these issues.

A very interesting read that brings up some issues of fundamental issues with arguments about ecology from all angles. I would recommend it even if you won't accept ever argument made.

Doing a re-read of Catch-22 after many years. I remember really enjoying the humor. I forgot how fragmented the narrative is, each paragraph/sentence starts on one subject and segues into another in such a strange yet natural way, like listening to a drunk guy ramble about an incredible story. I'm only a few chapters in but still enjoying it, it's a great book.

Just finished Dostoevsky's ''White nights''

I know is a little bit short but i like those stories where the protagonist is someone lonely Maybe I'll start with ''Notes from the Underground''.

In general I read words.

What about numbers?

Only sometimes, but I avoid it if possible.

Dante's Infero. Rather enjoying it to be honest. I am reading Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's edition and rather enjoying it. Sadly like all poems some of it is lost in translation.
