I recently finished Artemis, by the guy that wrote The Martian. Not very good, imo.
I also read The end of the world running club by Adrian J Walker. Pretty good post-apocalyptic book.
Slowly working my way through the Wheel of Time series as well. Book 0-3 are done. Robert Jordan could have told the same story in 1/3 the length. Sheesh that guy was verbose.

Originally posted by BigPiney View PostI am halfway through reading this and really like it. Thanks for the recommendation.
I have been reading a couple of John Sandford's books in the Virgil Flowers series. Virgil is a funny dude and I generally like Sandford's quirky Minnesotan characters. I'm reading Dark of the Moon right now, which I think is the first Virgil book. Just finished Escape Clause a few days ago, which might be the latest Virgil book? Anyway, I find myself laughing out loud (not cracking up, but chuckling) fairly often in these detective/crime thrillers.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

The Worst Hard Time - interesting look at the dust bowl era - what caused it, what conditions were like, etc."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"
