I’m reading The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce (Delphi edition) on my tablet.

Just finished Legendborn as well.

The Dark Forest by Liu Cixin is also what I’m reading (second book in the trilogy of The Three-Body Problem)

In terms of non-fiction:

Fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism (2nd Edition) by Otto Wille Kuusinen (highly recommended!)

Class, Race and Black Liberation by Henry Winston (also highly recommmend! …Though not before reading the prequel to the book Strategy for a Black Agenda)

Discussion questions:

What new books are you reading?

Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction?

Question of the week:

What books are you eager to read that you haven’t read yet?

Enjoy!

    I read through H.P. Lovecraft’s collected works.

    You start to notice more of the racism the older you get; when I was starting out, I assumed that “Well, it was just the times” and basically ignored the racism.

    Now? It’s hard not to notice it; I was a kid then, but I’m a fully grown adult now.

      Yeah, some of the stories are pretty gross. Like the one where some dude contacts some heavenly spirit trapped in a “degenerate” poor non-white dude’s body, and it’s trying to escape.
