I need a smaller book I can read in bed. Surprised it is a hardcover.

Time to switch to whisky, I’ve been reading about beer all day.

Andrew is starting Island Craft: Your Guide to the Breweries of Vancouver Island
I ordered another whisky book but this seems to be the thinnest book in my pile. I’m avoiding reading gaming or work books.

After the week I had, I’m glad I chose this book next. It is a much easier read, got through 34 pages over coffee.

I will probably abandon this book in fact it is abandoned though it has sat next to my bed for years.

I’m not sure I have enough time left in my life to give Kant another 700 pages or whatever, we’ll see how I do with Porter.

I’ve decided to resume reading this, I think it sucks less than Kant. I don’t like having unfinished books. I think I always finish books eventually but Kant… at least I can claim this is related to work in some way. Reading on weekends in cafes I made a thing until I stopped getting days off.

Andrew is on page 219 of 246 of Hard to Be a God
Recently on Twitter someone quipped that the finest minds of our age were getting 3.77 stars on Goodreads and I thought if you write a dull book, you write a dull book and if you want to enter a popularity contest take up singing on TV. The best books are not for everyone and page turners sell but are they really written by the finest minds of our age? Anyway I finished this.
