Bruce Lowther is on page 134 of 278 of Gateway (Heechee Saga, #1)

I really enjoyed this one. Interesting premise. I can see a lot of variations on it in modern SciFi. One unsavory assault that could have been done differently.

Bruce Lowther is on page 230 of 372 of Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning

Ugh. Hard to read. Frightening. Required reading for anyone that wants to continue living in a free United States.

Bruce Lowther is 25% done with A Spell for Chameleon (Xanth, #1)

I'm not sure I'm going to finish this one. It is not very good and a bit sexist.

Bruce Lowther is on page 198 of 485 of The Peripheral (Jackpot, #1)

The first few pages were really confusing. I'm going to go back and read those. After that abrupt start things have stabilized and I am really enjoying it.

Bruce Lowther is 33% done with Make: Calculus: Build models to learn, visualize, and explore

Just starting chapter 6: Integrals: The Basics. So far the book is very good. I wish I could have had this Calculus book in high school. I appreciate how the authors have connected the abstractions back to the real world.
It makes a lot more sense to me now. The use of physical printed models is novel and useful. It helps me to see the relationship between a function and it's derivative.

So far so good.
