October 2019 Newsletter

Hi all and welcome to October!

September wasn’t a great month for reading for me as I only read about 8 books.  I usually hit at least double figures.

That was primarily due to the weather still being nice here but knowing the patios will soon be closed so wanting to take advantage of the “patio weather” with my wife as much as we could.

My kids also talked me into watching Stranger Things and so a lot of nights were spent watching that.  Must admit I didn’t think it was my cup of tea but I am really enjoying the show.

One of the highlights of my month however was reading the Forward Collection.  It’s 6 short stories compiled by Blake Crouch and sold individually.  It’s sci-fi stories dealing with futuristic scenarios.  The authors are Crouch, N.K. Jemisin, Paul Tremblay, Veronica Roth, Andy Weir and Amor Towles. (more…)
