Books you've read lately

[VinnyVideo]

Have you read any interesting - or non-interesting - books lately? Books are still a thing, after all!

A few weeks ago I picked up a copy of Wide-Eyed and Legless at a library book sale. This book is considered one of the most well-known books about professional cycling (though I must admit it doesn't have a massive amount of competition). It was written by a journalist who traveled with a British cycling team at the 1987 Tour de France and followed their adventures and misadventures. This team was not at the front of the peloton, so to speak - they were extremely disorganized and poorly-run (their owner apparently "forgot" to pay them, a scenario that I found highly relatable!). This book doesn't reveal earth-shaking truths about Western civilization or anything, but it was a fun little read.

I might recommend that book to my dad, he is a big fan of cycling.
I read Dracula recently and I really enjoyed it. I also re-read Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass because I hadn't read them since I was younger. They're very weird but I like them a lot

I am currently rereading Animal Farm and Night for school. Both are really great books that I would personsly reconnmend. The first one is an allegory for Communism in the ussr and the second one is an autobiographical depiction of a teenager surviving the Holocaust.

I picked up a novelization of Batman: Arkham Knight solely because "who the hell writes a novelization of a video game story"

It's pretty bad! I think my favourite part so far is "Go away, the Joker."

Falcon Punch is the result of the Sun heating fists. It drives the Blue Falcon. Heating causes destruction of water into the pain, where it then hurts, creating rain. Rain creates flowing water in tears, which can then be converted into other forms through more pain.



This fight has only just begun...

A few months ago I finished reading Frankenstein. Good book, but pretty damn long! The plot is not as complicated and ununderstandable as people make it out to be, though.

The last time I actually read any of a book was the first two chapters of Bill Nye's Undeniable.

I bought a signed copy though!

[Andy Journey]

Manga for the most part. Seven Deadly Sins, Ancient Magus' Bride, Attack on Titan and Tokyo Ghoul just to name a few franchises I read.

[Cap'n Coconuts]

Recently, I've read Exodus, Hebrews, Cold-Case Christianity by J. Warner Wallace, a philosophy textbook, and Apology (of Socrates).

I also took a peep in the Quran while researching its treatment of a certain subject.

Currently in the middle of The Screwtape Letters. A little heavy-handed at times, but definitely enjoying it.

I just finished reading The Silmarillion a couple of weeks ago so that I could say I know all things Middle Earth.

I now know all things Middle Earth. Except for the 80% of what happened in The Silmarillion that I've already lost track of.

Been reading A Playcentric Approach to Designing Video Games. It's awesome. Finally reading a book about the subject I love most.

Aaso re read a couple spirituality books last months The Power of Now and a New Earth. Both good books to help free the mind and all that nonsense.

While we're on a roll for religious texts I wanted to start a Bible reading plan this year, but I didn't end up sticking with it lol

I've read a lot of the Bible before but it's been a good while

Currently in the process of reading Game Coding Complete, fourth edition. I read the original novel version of the Shining a while ago, as well as a finnish detective thriller named Rautakolmio (The Iron Triangle).

Nice, the Shining. My girlfriend let me read her copy of it. I didn' read much of it, maybe when I have the time. It' a sweet read thus far.

Over the summer I read the Red Rising trilogy. It was a pretty good read, I would strongly recommend it. The author is starting a new trilogy l and they first book will be released in January.

[Xander]
