Fish In Exile by Vi Khi Nao

i can read a jack reacher or lucas davenport in like two to four days

at the beach with another couple the husband is drowning, his wife dives in, the other couple dives in, then the little ducklings too

O Teh Tragedy

never heard from again

If anyone is interested in a “Star Wars/game of thrones/hunger games esque series, the red rising series has been one of the best books I’ve read. Highly recommend

Anyone interested in the Start of Baseball In Toronto Starting in Hanlon's Point try The Howleyites by D. M. Fox, a great read and some interesting names pop up like Babe Ruth, Carl Hubbell and Charlie Gehringer

chuck palahniuk Not Forever

is quite dysfunctional

i cannot recommend it

i cain swear the man ever wrote a book i liked

but he's a local boy so i put in a plug

heh

lauren oyler Fake Accounts

possibly the most boring book i ever read

i do not quit on any book but this one i almost had to

who gives a sh*t is the question i kept asking

if you're done with the dude, move on

My professional roles involve a ton of reading, so I prefer film/TV for fiction. However, I do read a lot about the band XTC (there are several books, ask if interested).

My read from earlier in 2026 that might appeal to lots of you is Bondy's take on the Brett "Pine Tar" game. Despite growing up a KC fan in that era, reading a perspective from NY was interesting, and there is so much detail on the setting and characters involved. I thought I knew a lot, but wow, I learned a ton.
