Nous is starting Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America
Solid but holds no real surprises if you've read about its main character in serious news outlets for the past decade or so. What you see, is what you get.

Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America

Nous
Nous is starting Seveneves
From hardcore sci-fi to softcore fantasy.

Parts 1 & 2: Riveting hardcore science fiction in the vein of "Three-Body Problem". Four stars.

Part 3: Corny Avatar-esque world building peppered with one-dimensional characters. 1 star (I fell asleep).

Total: 3 stars. And I don't think I'll be returning to this author. There are too many other good sci-fi writers I have to check out.

Nous
Nous is reading The Schopenhauer Cure
Can you cure philosophical pessimism? What is valuable in a human life? Is the solitary fear, love and passion of the individual the ultimate meaning of life?
