yuuagoNo brains at the moment. Have a Reading Wednesday.
Just finished: The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi. Breezy and light. Premise: After a layoff, our first person protagonist takes a job with some kind of mysterious government-funded animal conservation agency. Surprise, the animals are kaiju! And then it just gets more wild from there. IDK what to tell ya man, this is fun and not very deep. Just what I needed!
Currently Reading: The Long Walk by Stephen King. Death game genre; 100 boys set out on a walk. Last one standing wins. If you fall behind... well, don't fall behind. I picked this one up after seeing people mention it; 80 pages in and so far I'm like, "Man, this is whack". Having a good time with it, though.
Also currently reading: The Trigger: Hunting the Assassin Who Brought the World to War by Tim Butcher. About Gavrilo Princip, the dude who shot Archduke Ferdinand. Less a biography per se, and more trying to put him in context, I think. I have no earthly idea why I picked this one up. Not deep into it yet, but finding it interesting so far.
Reading next: I have no idea what, but it's probably going to be some nonfiction from my own bookshelves. I have an Estonia-related fic I want to write, but I'm going to need to do some research/review first.
