Today I started reading The Dictator's Handbook, which was recommended to me by this CGP Grey video ("The Rules for Rulers"), possibly my all-time favorite YouTube video. The book explains the thought processes that explain why people who govern make decisions that look bad (but actually work in their own interest) and how different places end up with such vastly different styles of leadership. I'm only about 2/3 through the foreword, but I can already tell I'm going to enjoy it a lot.

A Lee Child book, Jack Reacher character 'Without Fail'. Have read it a few times but I have read all his books on Jack Reacher and I am waiting for his next book to be published and then buy it, so all I am doing to pass time is going through and reading the book I have on Reacher again, yesterday I finished Reacher and Killing Floors.

I'm currently reading Demon of the Waters by Gregory Gibson. It's a shipwreck story during the whaling age (true story). Sorry to say it's boring and disappointing, was hoping to be enthralled as I love sailor stories. Am considering giving up. Read Byron of the Wager instead.

Right now I'm just starting So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo. I saw a few amazing reviews from friends on Goodreads and felt like giving it a shot. Plus it was a nice excuse to go to my local library; I haven't been there for a while.

Another Jack Reacher (Lee Child) book, 'Personal'.

I recently finished the classic "To Kill a Mockingbird". I must be the only one in the world that has waited so long to read this book. A lot of controversy over this book but it sure was a wonderful and insightful read. Maybe even better for me because of the era in which I was born.

Question (like I mentioned in my review) Do you think "Divergent" teaches better life lessons and should replace TKaM in school?

 Four Past Midnight by Stephen King, back when he did an awesome job of writing horror books.

Can anyone recommend a book on reading by osmosis?

Still reading 'The Enemy' by Lee Child (Jack Reacher) but my daughter gave me a book to read which she said I may like by Michael Marshall Smith titled One Of Us, anybody heard of him and his books?

“Psycho” by Robert Bloch

I recently finished watching the final season of Bates Motel, but I’ve never watched any of the movies. I was going to watch the original 1960 Hitchcock film, but at the last minute I decided to read the book instead.

Going to start reading "The Indignation of Haruhi Suzumiya".
