I have about an hour left in the audiobook Hearts in Atlantis by Stephen King. This was a very pleasant surprise for me. Just the title alone, I wasn't sure that it was something I would want to read, but I'm so glad I did. I didn't realize the title was talking about the card game (I guess like spades?). This book had me feeling so much nostalgia of growing up and my college years. It was to the point that i was actually feeling depressed missing my childhood and dealing with my daughter going into her senior year of high school. I love the way he wrote this book. The short story that deals with Vietnam was a tough section, I feel for all those that were involved. But definitely recommend the book (audiobook was awesome!).

I'm 40 pages into it and loved how it has started, but little happening at the moment, so hoping it gets good soon. Have heard great things about it so definitely subscribed

Completed: The Randolph Carter Tales by HP Lovecraft - a collection of his stories that involve, you guessed it, Randolph Carter. I enjoyed it and I appreciated that I had to look up a few words, though the prose gets a little cumbersome at times and some of the twists seem a little trite to a modern reader. Worth the read, though I probably won't revisit these stories.

My wife had read this and loved it. Reading the description and it sounds like Clive Barker's Imajica or Weaveworld. Two incredible books. Still so disappointing that he just flat out quit writing so many years ago.

I loved Weaveworld and The Great and Secret Show when I was a kid. I read Imajica as well just don't remember it as much for whatever reason. Agree, wish he would have written more.

He just up and decided he would be a painter instead. He wrote a book about a decade(?) ago about this demon traveling through the circles of hell and it was terrible. Haven't seen anything since granted I haven't gone out of my way to look.

Just finished listening to Project Hail Mary, what a fun book. And the guy who narrated it was great.

Listened:
- Project Hail Mary

Read
- the Hobbit

Note:
- I suck at reading and would love to finish out with 12 books read this year.

Depending on how much you liked The Hobbit, ju.p right into The Lord of the Rings. There's three books all set up for you in the same style and setting that are even better.

Likewise The Martian and Artemis by Andy Weir are excellent as well if you enjoyed PHM.

Ephesians: An Expositional Commentary by RC Sproul. Very quick read.
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.
