This week’s reading included:
“If you don’t want a man unhappy politically, don’t give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.”
Deeply disturbing and far too accurate sentiment from Fahrenheit 451
- Fahrenheit 451 (Bradbury)
- Animal Farm (Orwell)
- Out of Range (Box)
- In Plain Sight (Box)
- The Wind in the Willows (Grahame)
- The Collapsing Empire (Scalzi)
- The Consuming Fire (Scalzi)
- The Last Emperox (Scalzi)
“As far as Kiva could tell, whenever selfish humans encountered a wrenching, life-altering crisis, they embarked on a journey of five distinct stages: Denial. Denial. Denial. Fucking Denial. Oh shit everything is terrible grab what you can and run.”
The Last Emperox
I have the next CJ Box book in the series on hold from the library but it’s unclear when that will come in. So next week is a little up in the air, reading-wise.
On the other hand I positively devoured this series from Scalzi – all 3 books in 1.5 days and he has several other series for me to seek out. How quickly I can get my hands on them will be a factor. Tons more classics are available of course.
I’ll be reading something. No worries there.
