Hey Beehaw (and friends)! What’re you reading?
Previously I had these thread labelled as monthly threads, but I have had an incredibly busy few months and had not been able to keep up with it. So this is now going to be a general sticky that will be replaced “every so often” when the previous thread gets overly full :)
Novels, nonfiction, ebooks, audiobooks, graphic novels, etc - everything counts!
I’ve been trying to come out of a reading slump by returning to some old favorites!
I’ve already read most Sherlock Holmes stories, but I haven’t gotten to every single one in His Last Bow or The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes, so I’ve borrowed a complete collection and promptly gotten sidetracked by rereading The Hound of the Baskervilles.
I also finally got around to reading the Anne of Green Gables series, and absolutely adored the first few books. The older and more restrained Anne gets, the less engaging I find them, but it’s a very comfortable series and I was gifted all eight paperbacks, so I soldier on through book seven. Anybody else in the community doing some recent reading?
Currently reading through Lord of the Rings with my wife. We’re on book two. I’ve been pretty scattered between books lately otherwise, reading Pirsig’s Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Erikson’s Midnight Tides from his Malazan Book of the Fallen series, and a book of art made by survivors and witnesses of the atom bombs in WWII Japan called Unforgettable Fire. Haven’t had the mental willpower lately to sit down and get a good read in, so I’ve been jumping between snippets of these books.
