    “Greenlights” - Mathew McConaughey, surprisingly good. Currently reading ‘Look to Windward’ by Iain M. Banks

      I loved the ‘Foundation’ series! The 1st is in my top 5. ‘I, Robot’ was such a fantastic book as well, infinitely better than the movie.

        I loved the first Foundation, but never read beyond that, for some reason. I know I have the first trilogy around here somewhere. I should dig up the other ones.

    I’m chewing my way through the stormlight archives by Bryan Sanderson. Just finished book 2.5, on book 3 now.

    The Gate of the Feral Gods; Book 4 of recently 6 of the Dungeon Crawler Carl LITRPG series by Matt Dinniman. It’s been an absolute blast so far, and I highly recommend the series if you like some combination of tabletop RPGs, cats, death games, or explosions.

    Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, and I hated it.

    It takes a very cool premise, then fills it with incongruences and predictable twists that you understand chapters ahead of the protagonist. Then it all ends up being (SPOILERS AHEAD) a “humans used to literally talk to nature, modern society bad” mumbojumbo with some kind of unexplained multiverse in it.

    Overlord. I’ve need to finish volumes 14-17, but it demotivates me that author abandoned his work.

    Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. I keep starting some books after this one but I can’t seem to finish anything.
