Holidays are over! Happy New Year!

I didn’t get much to read over the holidays, but I finished The Black Company by Glen Cook. The story was interesting but the way it is written made it hard for me to read. Still, going to continue with the trilogy and see if second book is any better in that regard.

Currently reading Dead Beat by Jim Butcher. Loving the book. The series just keeps getting better and better.

What about you? What have you been reading or listening?

Well, I just finished Infinite Powers: The Story of Calculus - The Language of the Universe, by Steven Strogatz. Really enjoyed it, interesting for an overview of calculus history and how it affects everyday life.

I think I’ll start 2024 reading by a reread of Tolkien’s lotr + silmarillion. I, of course, already read it but one it was +20 years ago and two I read a French translation at the time and I want to read the original thing.

Why are you going to skip the poor Hobbit? What did the poor Hobbitses do to you?

I used to be terrible at Calculus, but found it exciting. Not going to specifically look for it, but will check it out if it ever crossed my paths. 😀
