Very busy couple of weeks, so didn't actually read anything.

Still on Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, 2nd novel in Icewind Dale series, which is a subseries of Forgotten Realms series (D&D world).

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Can't believe I never got around to it on the first go-round, but Nick Hornby's "High Fidelity."

I'm still reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. My area had some unexpected weather a couple weeks ago so I've been off my usual routine.

The book is good and I'm about half way through. I want to finish it by tomorrow.

Nice. I should read it sometimes too. It has been on my backlog for so long.

Currently reading Food And Society In Classical Antiquity.

How are you liking it so far?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Almost finished with it. It's somewhat more of an 'overview' than I was expecting, but I've learned a lot. And not all of it about antiquity - did you know that whole wheat bread isn't healthier than white bread? Fuck, I ate wheat bread as a kid for nothing?

Heh, didn't know that. Good thing I didn't force myself to eat those 😀 White Bread FTW!
