What are you reading?
I've been a Zappa fan since I bought my first album (We're Only In It For The Money) when it was released in January 1968. A friend, who knows that, was gracious enough to lend me this to read. What's got your interest?

Re: What are you reading?
I'm about 1/3 through this book. Wow, what a story. Mila lived a life a lot of us would have loved to experience. Highly recommend.

I've just started a series i read a few times called Emperor by Conn Iggulden. Amazing set of books, the author has a few good series.

Re: What are you reading?
Just started reading the Witcher saga by Andrzej Sapkowski. I've already finished them all years ago, but they are such great books I wanted to read them again. Especially after seeing how Netflix butchered it and turned it into a painfully bad series...

Re: What are you reading?
Love Stephen King's short stories collections. This one and Just After Sunset are my favourite.

Re: What are you reading?
I can't recommend this enough if you're craving some postapocalyptic fiction. There are 3 books in total but I only got through this first one so far.

Re: What are you reading?
One of the earlier Stephen King's novels. I really enjoyed it and it's pretty short, so you can finish it in one day. 8/10.

Re: What are you reading?
Just finished Tremendous by joey diaz and about to start the fellowship of the ring.
Tremendous was exactly that if you're a fan of The church of what's happening now.
