I'm reading this book to try to get some perspective and as a student of history.  And also because my wife's grandfather was in the Wehrmacht on the eastern front and I'm curious about his experience which included being captured by the Soviets the same as the author of this book.

I am a bit more than a third through this unusual and enjoyable take on time travel and have discovered there is a sequel, which I have just ordered.

I'm about half way into the third and final book of the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson. Amazing books, especially if you like fantasy genre. Any Sanderson fans in here?

Reading this book by Jordan Peterson - he's a Psych Prof at the University of Toronto and formerly Harvard. Its excellent.  Also see the video below that has garnered over 9 million views in three months.

Plus one for Peterson’s 12 Rules. The Newman interview above is awesome. He also posts all his lectures from his position as a University Professor on his YouTube account.

This is the sequel to the book above that I read, The Little Book, and I am enjoying it just as much.  
It is actually what I would call a gentle read as there is nothing cliffhanger about it, yet the time travel concept is used to great effect to help tell the story.

Gilgamesh, translated by Stephen Mitchell. I read part of Gilgamesh when I was nine or ten. When I saw this translation in a local bookstore recently, I bought it. A very good translation of an engaging tale from ancient Sumeria.

This book was recommended at a bookshop and I am finally getting around to reading it.
Even though only 50 pages in, I am enjoying it.  The premise is certainly intriguing.

This is my first read of a Stephen King novel and even though I'm only about 80 pages into a 700+ page book, I'm already enjoying it.
