"Forgot about this after the car journey last week but a Reacher book is easy to fall back into. Usual stuff, more than one mystery going on at the same time and always a bad guy who is just worth disappearing. The narrator is awful as Reacher. Doesn't have the gravitas.
That aside ok to have on in the background whilst data crunching"

"I've taken a weekend pause around the 50% mark because whilst the details remain a bit foggy, I know what follows - eviscerating Supercollider is going to be brutal. I am mentally preparing myself by reading romances. That should counteract the brutality to come, shouldn't it?" Jan 31, 2026 02:53PM

Maggie  Evans
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think that’s a good idea,” she whispered before clearing her throat. “These feelings we have for each other were so sudden, and the way we met was very… unique. But it doesn’t mean we should entertain this. I mean, how do we know we didn’t just get whisked away by the unexpected passion of a hostage situation?” My jaw threatened to crack with how tightly I clenched it. “Whisked?” “Yeah, whisked. Like… Like we’re a bowl of egg whites trying to be meringue, you know?” No, apparently, I didn’t know. Sadie sighed quietly. “It’s a lovely thought, but we’re not egg whites, Dav. And we’ll never be meringue.” I pulled the phone away from my ear and stared at it—wondering if I’d had a stroke—before putting it back. “Say that again in English.” “Don’t get me wrong,” she said. “The last couple days have been like a fairy tale—well, one involving an alarming amount of blood. And instead of a princess in a tower, there was a man locked in a shed. But some time apart will give us a better perspective. For all we know, our feelings are the result of Stockholm and reverse Stockholm syndrome.” I closed my eyes. This girl would be the death of me.”
Maggie Evans, Hot for Hostage

J.T. Geissinger
“I know I’m damaged. But all my broken pieces belong to you.”
J.T. Geissinger, Liars Like Us

Frank Herbert
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Michelle Obama
“Failure is a feeling long before it becomes an actual result”
Michelle Obama, Becoming

“He fucks me like he’s feral, hips snapping hard, each thrust hitting so deep it knocks sound from my lungs.”
Lydia Hall, His Orders
