Congrats Crazy on finishing War and Peace, I'm not sure I could do that these days. I'm just not sure I can focus that long on fiction .....
As for me, since my last update I finished
'Skin in the Game' by Taleb,
'**** Deus a brief history of tomorrow' by Yuval Harari, '
How will you measure your life' by Clayton Christensen, and am 20% or so done with Chernow's '
Alexander Hamilton'
I'm coming to the conclusion that I'm not much on biographies these days as I'm finding Chernow's book to feel like another slog much as the recent Aaron Burr biography I read was. I'll keep plugging away though and see what happens.
When I was younger I was an inveterate reader but as my life circumstances changed I'd stopped reading books several years ago, (Mostly I read magazines / newspapers in their various forms as well as various websites over the last several years) A few months ago I made the decision / conscious choice to go back to reading books regularly. It is interesting, though not surprising, to see how much my interests have changed now that I've made that
choice. It is enjoyable to go back to the rhythm of reading books, if nothing else it makes me feel younger
