I’ve put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It’s mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I’m going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

    Currently rereading City of Golden Shadow, the first book of the Otherland series by Tad Williams.

      You’re in for a treat.

      I am thankful his father finally noticed the dedications. No telling how many volumes he would have done, otherwise.

      I waffle on wishing Otherland would get a TV series, and being pretty sure any TV series done would end up kind of awful.

        There’s definitely a ton of potential for a series and I’ve definitely thought about it myself.

        The challenge would be finding the balance between too much detail and making it boring, and not enough detail and making it confusing.

      I should reread that. I once had and read the first 2 volumes, but never finished the series. It is time.
