What are you currently reading?

What store? I'm always looking for used reads.
Brused Books in Pullman. I used to visit it all the time when I’d fly out to visit my now-wife who was in school at WSU. Always flew home with a heavier suitcase than what I came with. I’m not sure how covid is treating them, but I know they have things organized enough that they can find authors and titles and would ship books to people too, or at least they used to. Prices were good too!

Ha! I know it well.
 
Now reading President Obama’s memoir, “A Promised Land.” It’s impressive that he wrote it himself with no ghostwriter, although that means the accounts of his terms in office range from fascinating to mundane.

I've logged about half of that list so far. There's still a lot of McGuane left to read though.

I'm in the middle of "Rythm of War" too. Hoping it picks up a little bit. The first and second books were so good, they got me through book 3 on faith.
 
Absolutely. I've actually quit a couple of his books (or at least one) because I was pretty distraught with what I'd just read, and realized I really wasn't enjoying it.
It took years to finish Suttree...and I don't know whay I finished Child of God. He is a very macabre disciple of Faulkner, whom I've started and stopped many times.

It's definitely a bit slower than the first 2, I'm hoping it pics up as well.
 
Just finished Tony Russ's Guide to Hunting Dall Sheep in Alaska revision 2.
Starting a book called AllIn that was given to me by Randy McPherson.
