Always wanted to start one of his. But, IIRC, isn't Poland one of his less good ones?

Dunno, Edina. I’m enjoying it because I wanted to be spoon-fed pablum of this particular history since I know nothing about it. For parts of history I’m interested in knowing more about, I usually read a historical novel about it and see if I get hooked in reading more solid history books about it.

well I can assure you everything about, from, or related to Poland is excellent.

I'm about to re-read Foundation, the 'bonus' is that this paperback copy has been signed by Asimov (in 1974).

Read The Marvellers - a kind new age (YA) re-imagining of Harry Potter (kid goes off to magical boarding school, doesn't fit in due to parentage/background, etc etc). Good for elementary/middle school.

For more mature/in depth/adult magical stories, go with The Magicians series by Lev Grossman (has been made into a Netflix show)

I'm not big on graphic t-shirts, but when I'm going somewhere coastal-casual, and I think there will be some Maga or Qanon freaks about, it's a fun grab to put on.

Just finished this. Picked it up in april. Ngl after 440ish pages and with 300 left to go i just started skipping chapters. It wasnt bad just like how many stories of people killing people can i read?

Man, for such a small city that San Francisco is, there sure was a bunch of shit going down during the 60s and 70s. The story the author tells about the Symbionese Liberation Army is crazy.
