What are you reading?

Slow Horses by Mick Herron

I wish I could say, and meant to have "reading from books" as part of my daily regimen after I retired at the end of 2017, but it's just not happening at the moment.

Sure, I read some every day from internet news and some forums, but somehow committing to reading a novel seems like too much of a time-commitment to me nowadays, and even though I have recently bought some collections of stories that are about ten pages each, some time has passed, and I haven't read any of those either.

Well, that's how things are over here.

Cixin Liu: Kugelblitz

A very entertaining (and nicely scientific) novel.

What are you hoping to find?

@Ghost-of-a-Duke said
The future.

@Torunn said
Will you accept it even if it interferes with your hopes?

@Ghost-of-a-Duke said
No. I believe the future is malleable. (Can still be shaped).

@Torunn said
Good luck.

Oh wenn Du doch geredet hättest Desdemona by Christine Brückner

ungehaltene Reden ungehaltener Frauen

One could say a collection of feminsitic texts. Or one could say a collection fo texts giving a new framing to "well-known" scenes.
