I'm terrible for reading too many things at once.. in the last 6 months I think I've only finished the above two books! But I'm also reading:

1. The Core - Peter V. Brett
2. Mythos - Stephen Fry
3. World War Z - Max Brooks
4. Mortal Engines - Philip Reeve

Maybe this is why I have so many unfinished projects 🤔

I'm trying to improve my French reading, so I'm going through the Harry Potter series in French and taking breaks between each one by reading something in English. I never saw the movies or read past the 5th book in English, so I'm curious to see how it ends!

1. Harry Potter et le Prince de sang-mêlé, J. K. Rowling translated by Jean-François Ménard
2. The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood
3. Harry Potter et l'Ordre du Phénix, J. K. Rowling translated by Jean-François Ménard

Nice I like Peter F Drucker cause he seems to me, more of the most sensible business professors that i came across. That doesn't throw you lots of weird business terms to you but draws from a good amount of stories and examples to show you how it is adopted like "The purpose of a business is to create a customer"

Back to my last 3 books I had completed:
1) Moscow Rules - How US won the code war by the CIA agents and technical officers stationed in Moscow by following these rules. Much like Gibson rules if you had watched NCIS through trial by fire in life or death situations.
2) The Phoenix Project - The organisation transformation story about Parts Unlimited on how they adopted a DevOps approach for delivering value to their customers and stakeholders.
3) The Obesity Code - Talks about the actual case studies and how we approach in losing weight. What we should adopt for our own lifestyle instead of just going on a diet & exercising.

Gardens of Moon - Steven Erikson

I liked this a lot. A wonderful cast of characters, full of epic moments, lots of intrigue and a pretty good setup to the rest of the series.

Unlike what some reviews suggested, I was pretty hooked very early on in the book and didn't really have any complaints about there writing.

For me at least, the plot had the right amount of delicious elements - intrigue, powerful characters i.e. Gods and Demigods, a never ending war, battle worn soldiers with names like Whiskeyjack and Kalam, an undead race, dragons. What else can I ask for?

Ghachar Ghochar by Vivkek Shanbag

It is a dark comedy based around a tight-knit family. As I was reading this book while trying to pretend to work from home, I grew increasingly uncomfortable more and more I got into the story.

Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind by V.S. Ramachandran and Sandra Blakeslee

Fascinating read. It's full of real case studies of people suffering from really peculiar conditions and the authors do a wonderful job in distilling complex concepts into a very accessible book. To be honest I was out of depth in majority of the last chapter where discussions of consciousness, the self and free will were being explained. But nevertheless it did enough to quench my long standing curiosity of the workings of human brain.

Overlord

Meet the great tomb of Nazarick and their citizens. Spoiler alert, they are all evil to the bone.

The Reincarnation of the Strongest Sword God

Learn about the guild Zero Wing and its famous leader, Black Fame.

Both are great.

The last would be the Reincarnation of the businesswoman at school by Warm Color Sue but I did not find the relevant amazon link. The book started promising, but the next development was rather disappointing.

1. Burning Chrome by William Gibson
   "Fast moving short stories. Very engrossing book. All but two of the stories were very good. As prelude to Neuromancer, it made me want to read the next book as soon as possible."

2. Mexico Set by Len Deighton
   "Really took off as compared to the first book. Bernard is out on a island after what happened with his wife. Some really scene that get you going. I'm not jumping into the third book just yet. "

3. Berlin Game by Len Deighton
   "A lot of set-up. It's a really good book with a couple of good scene's. Thing's start to come together at the end to make you wanna read Mexico Set."

In fact, there are really a lot of good books and it's hard to say which ones are the best. But I do know that one of the best is of course Hysteria in the Crucible , as it is really a historical work that makes a tough description. Therefore I can say that click this site , therefore I personally recommend to read here the necessary essays and to learn a lot of new things for yourself concerning just this very work.
