| Interesting biography about, well, the title tells it all. The biographer did her research and most definitely worked to tamp down and dispel the myths that make the house a tourist attraction. There turns out to be a very logical explanation for the ...more | |

| Probably the best general history of A.I., and the race to achieve A.G.I. (Artificial General Intelligence) that I have read/listened to. Though Hao mainly discusses Sam Altman and his relations to others in the tech industry, you get a lot of info a ...more | |

"I don't care if this book was the basis for The Aviator or not, it's full of misinformation and flat out lies. Scandal sells. But a little research goes a long way. There is plenty of information out there today readily available if you really want a"

| A very good biography, as I remember. It's been a few years since I read it. A good illustration of the attitude of "Baby, I Don't Care" would be the scene in the original movie Cape Fear (based on the John D. MacDonald book, The Executioners) where ...more | |

Listened on Audible, though I do have the hardback copy of the book. I thought this was the book I had read some years ago; however, there was a scene that was missing this time around so maybe this is a different book. The scene was of John Wayne, Ava ...more |

| King's short story collections are my favorite and always a pleasure to read. This collection had quite a few really good stories that seem to harken back to the style of his earlier collections (Night Shift and Skeleton Crew). There were a couple of ...more | |
"Hermann Hesse’s words are timeless. Here they represent an entire disaffected generation, a generation who is on the cusp of radical change but still partly exists in the old world. They are out of space and out of time: they are lost within themselv"

“I have outlasted all desire,
My dreams and I have grown apart;
My grief alone is left entire,
The gleamings of an empty heart.
The storms of ruthless dispensation
Have struck my flowery garland numb,
I live in lonely desolation
And wonder when my end will come.
Thus on a naked tree-limb, blasted
By tardy winter's whistling chill,
A single leaf which has outlasted
Its season will be trembling still.”

“No fiction is worth reading except for entertainment. If it entertains and is clean, it is good literature, or its kind. If it forms the habit of reading, in people who might not read otherwise, it is the best literature.”

“Maybe...you'll fall in love with me all over again."
"Hell," I said, "I love you enough now. What do you want to do? Ruin me?"
"Yes. I want to ruin you."
"Good," I said. "That's what I want too.”
― A Farewell to Arms

― A Farewell to Arms
“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”
