@J1MM3RT only comic I ever enjoyed was Mous which won the Pulitzer, I believe. In the 80s which is when I got my copy.
Mous is soooooo good. My roommate has them & I tend to read them every couple of months or so.
-
Classics. I got mine before Mous 2 was written. I have both in their original printings.

Finished reading Lean, Mean Thirteen today.

Just finished Sword of Moses and am looking forward to new books. I got a $25 amazon gift card for Fathers day, oh yeah!

I've decided that I really need to go to the oldest point in my Audible catalogue and just start working my way forward and try to hit everything that I have not yet read. It is really easy to lose things in there. I've had a subscription for so many years that I ended up with an epic backlog of books. And a really eclectic one at that.
It doesn't make it any easier that @Dominica 's books are in there too so there are a lot that I have no interest in reading mixed in with the good stuff.
-
Reading Founding Brothers.
-
Driving Over Lemons a year after I lived in the town where the book takes place.

If anyone is looking for a new Fantasy author, Brandon Sanderson is my favorite, by a significant margin. He has multiple series that he is concurrently writing that all have unique characters, stories, and magic systems. And the larger universe is all tied together in some way that he has yet to explain.

Agreed, he is a fantastic author! Robin Hobb is another favorite of mine. Her Farseer Trilogy is a classic.

I'm currently reading a series of books I picked up for free a few weeks ago, "Legends: Fifteen Tales of Swords and Sorcery".
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28512410-legends
Set to finish up Book #2 ( "The Blacksmith's Son (Mageborn #1)" by Michael G. Manning) in the next day or so... So far the first two books have been kinda meh, but I don't think I'm necessarily the target audience so we'll leave it at that. And considering the price I can't really complain all that much (yet).
