There's a prophet who predicted 9/11 eight months prior with 100% accuracy, the pandemic and Jan. 6th prior with 100% accuracy! I am reading his AMAZING book on Amazon called SHINE LITTLE LIGHT. He predicted Trump's arrest back on March 22nd. He was visited by God three times at age 13!

I finished the Dark Tower series by Stephen King tonight. Most extensive Sci-Fi series I've ever read so far. Plenty of horror elements throughout too. I'm not sure where to go from here. I haven't read any Sanderson, but I'm open to it. Just looking for suggestions

I just finished The Murder Of Roger Ackroyd. It was my introduction to Poirot and I definitely didn't see that ending coming. Good stuff. I may try out some other ones eventually.

Targeted: Beirut by Jack Carr & James M. Scott was fantastic. I was born in the late 80s, so a lot of the info in this book was new to me. I think Carr was wise to hone his writing style in fiction before moving on to a topic he's probably wanted to write about for a long time. His narrative non-fiction is on par with the quality of writing you'd expect from The Terminal List series. I look forward to what comes next from him in either genre.

I'm on the third book, Dust, of the "Silo" series by Hugh Howey. The first season of the show made me want more and once I found out it was a book trilogy, I bought it that day.
I didn't realize that a lot of Apple TV+ shows are book adaptations.

Polostan by Neal Stephenson. This is a very odd book for Stephenson to write. It's historical fiction in the 1920's and 30's alternating between Russia and the US, about a woman on the periphery of the communist struggle. It very much reminds me of Against the Day by Thomas Pynchon which was also very odd but I mostly liked and had similar themes. This is the first book in a series and I'm only about half way in so I don't know what Stephenson is setting up for future books. But I have read that the Manhattan project and Richard Feynman will be featured. What I've read is good so far, just not typical for Stephenson at all.
Edited - finished it and actually went through it a second time as I'm traveling and have it on audio. And it's worth it. I really do like this one. Stephenson is as strong a writer as ever. To an extent he's going back to something like he did in Cryptonomicon. But it's more to explore political systems/history. The 20's and 30's were really an interesting time that get neglected as the period between the wars and the depression in general. Patton and Beria have significant roles as does Richard Feynman (yeah). It's a larger than life story with a female protagonist that alternates between the Russian revolution, Montana cowboys, labor organizers and the bonus army conflict, and Soviet espionage and the Manhattan project are about to become the topic. Highly recommended if you like Stephenson and history.
