Just finished Ten Days that Shook the World. I really enjoyed it. It's one thing to read history from a large-scale top down perspective, another to see how a revolution was actually conducted on a minute by minute street by street basis. Looking for the next thing to read now

Everything is f*cked.

Metamorphosis, by Franz Kafka.

Call to Arms, by Lu Xun

It's a short story collection. I'm actually at the beginning, I've only read two stories so far. Kong Yiji is really good!!

"Uncle Tom's Cabin". So far very powerful writing. Just finished reading "Tuesday's with Morrie" which is fantastic.

I'm halfway through the first Witcher book. After being disappointed with the Netflix show, I had to read the original source. I'm enjoying it so far. My goal is to read them all and play the games afterwards.

Yumi and the Nightmare Painter - Brando Sando

Currently reading Coda vol. 1 right now. Liking the main character particularly his pentacorn.

Currently reading A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark on and off. It's a sequel to a story called A Dead Djinn in Cairo (and others in the same universe) by the same author. The worldbuilding is pretty good. It transports you to this fantasy steampunk version of the world where Egyptian and Arabian culture is dominant (vs just Victorian, as is usually the case with steampunk).

Diary of a Drug Addict by Alister Crowley

I need to pick Cracker! Back up, i started reading it in 8th grade by borrowing it from my English teacher, found it years later on amazon. I just have an issue with not wanting to read books anymore after havign the fun sucked out of them due to public school book tests.

• Four Past Midnight by Stephen King
• Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy

The Fight Club, I can't get myself to finish it, knowing how it ends because of the movie does not help either.

Dark Age by Pierce Brown, part of the Red Rising series

Zodiac by Neal Stephenson. I like the narrator's "voice".
