A day late, but better late than never!

I finished Grave Peril, third book of Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher. The series has start picking up. This book is much higher quality than the first two.

Currently, I am reading two books.

  • The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Carroll. I have been using bullet journal for nearly a decade, but never got around to reading the book, so finally got it. While there's nothing new in the method, the "why" are interesting, and should help me be more productive.

  • Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Man, what a book. I think this is one of the best book I have read recently. I am more than half-way, and loving every moment of it.

What about all of you? What have you been reading?

The Three Body Problem - Still plodding along through. I’m probably 2/3 done.

Have you read the whole series? How did you like it?

I haven't, but I plan to. I actually did like the first one a lot. I've seen it criticized for being a slog, my view is that it just keeps piling on question marks until the very end and then ties everything together with an incredible reveal.

Ah, that's cool. Let's hope the ending makes up for it.

Just saw a trailer of Three-Body Problem on Netflix upcoming list. I wonder if it's this one.
