      I've been reading Steve Jobs on and off.

      What he wrote or about him?

      The biography by Walter Isaacson

      I read this right after it came out. I learned a lot. It wasn't a bad read either.

        The man lived an interesting life to say the least.

              The Steve Jobs autobiography was the first book I purchased digitally.. I try to stay there now 🙂

                  I started on Master and Magueritta, but I always get side tracked by reddit no matter what I'm reading 🙂

                        I keep "The Virus Hunter" on my phone for emergency reading needs. I will be buying a couple of Richard Preston's books this weekend but I need to rediscover a few good books about viruses I got for Christmas.
                        Other than that lately I've just read some dog training books and my subscription to Musclecar Review. Professionally I'm reading CWTS Official Study Guide.

                            Finished reading An Endless Ring of Light yesterday and started reading Troubling a Star which so far is not too bad.

                              Finished Dragons in the Water last night. Now starting A House Like a Lotus. I am nearly done with the entire Madeleine L'Engle triple cycle.

                                Finished Troubling a Star and am now rereading Up a Road Slowly by Irene Hunt. Another one from long ago.

                                  Finished reading Up a Road Slowly yesterday and started reading War and Peace. This is going to be exhausting 🙂

                                    On Friday I finished reading Dragons of Autumn Twilight and started reading Dragons of Winter Night. Some of my middle school era classics that I've missed.

                                          Tons of these titles are available on Audible now. I own about ten of them in print but have no time for that these days. But via Audible they work out really well for me. So I bought the first four and plan on probably reading twenty or so of them as time allows.

                                            Weis and Hickman are actually the authors that first got me really interested in Fantasy as a genre. I grew up with C.S. Lewis and tried a few things prior to Autumn Twilight but they were different and did not make me interested in furthering my investigation of fantasy literature in the way that the Dragonlance Chronicles did.
