What have you finished reading?
Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler - This gripped me from beginning to end. I couldn't put it down. Occasionally, I found the prose lacking. But the story itself was fine just on its own. I strongly dislike the gap between the main character and her lover. I know this has a sequel so I need to get my ass to the used book shop and pick it up!
What are you currently reading?
Traction: Get a Grip on Your Business by Gino Wickman (Author) - Oh boy. Use data. With data that isn't reactive you can get a better understanding of Business Stuff. This book is very basic in its principles, but I really do think a lot of small businesses don't do even half of this shit.
Moby Dick by Herman Melville - I am caught up! I am convinced Ishmael isn't a very reliable narrator after a few chapters. But it confirms he's absolutely a dork at the very least. Queequeg is absolutely fucking with him and he's falling for it hook, line, and sinker. And I can only assume he is in wayyyy over his head with this whaling expedition. We haven't met Captain Ahab yet which feels weird. either way, once I "get into the language", its a riveting book thats hard to put down.
