Currently reading "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheeps" by Philip K. Dick.

It's excellent!

I personally prefer Ubik. I think it's Dick's best work. Androids is my 3rd fav Dick book.
(One of my favorite books, actually)

‘The Queen of Katwe: A Story of Life, Chess, and One Extraordinary Girl’s Dream of Becoming a Grandmaster’ by Tim Crothers

It's the story of a girl from a slum in Uganda who rises to become a very competitive chess player. The daily struggle for food, the deplorable living conditions, and the reality of children who can't attend school because they can't afford tuition is hard to fathom. It did soften my generally unfavorable attitude toward missionary organizations.

“The Queen of Katwe” is as much about the Ugandan slum of Katwe, in the city of Kampala, as it is about a young Ugandan chess player, Phiona Mutesi.

Looks like it's going to be made into a movie!

The Third Reich -A New History by Michael Burleigh

 How is it?

The Third Reich -A New History by Michael Burleigh

 How is it?

Don't get me wrong but I feel that it quite hard work due to it being of a very scholarly nature and at nearly 1000 pages thick.  I have heard though that the trilogy of books on the subject by Prof Richard J Evans are just as good if you want to get into the subject. I'm still on the early days of the Weimar Republic at the moment.

Just finished The Genius of Dogs: How Dogs Are Smarter than You Think an excellent and thoroughly readable work by animal cognition researchers Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods -- recommended to anyone who likes dogs.

Also, on the lighter and darker side, just finished The Prisoner of Heaven, Carlos Ruiz Zafon's sequel to both The Shadow of the Wind and The Angel's Game -- shorter than the others, and that is a pity, but excellent all the same.

Now concentrating on Ronald Hutton's The Druids -- tedious sentence structures but very interesting.

Currently re-reading A Feast for Crows, by George R. R Martin

Freakin' awesome!

[The_Xenologer]

I am reading both A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin and The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller. Both are great so far!

[King Pizza]

Today I had time to start reading another book for fun and it is Five equations that changed the world.

[Northman]

Started reading Carlos Ruiz Zafón's 'Prisoner of Heaven' yesterday. I have been waiting to read this book for a while now.

Star Wars: Coruscant Nights: The Last Jedi by Michael Reaves & Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff. It's nice to have a new book in what was originally a trilogy that ended a few years ago. I really enjoyed the series, even though The Clone Wars cartoon has unfortunately changed some of the canon from this quadrilogy/quartet/whatever-the-word-is.
