New thread for the rest of the year (hopefully). I wish I had more time to read!

I wish you did, too. The best ways to manage stress I have found are through reading an enjoyable book or working Crossword puzzles.

The Complete Books of Charles Fort Not familiar with this author. Perhaps you could describe his works? I am interested in what my comrades are reading so that I might learn something.

I learned at age 19 that I don't want explanations for some unexplained phenomena. I would rather not think about it than to know something that I can't unknown.

After last finishing Notes From A Dead House, by Fyodor Dostoevsky, I've started The Death of Ivan Ilych And Other Stories, By Leo Tolstoy.
I've been making a huge dent into classic Russian literature, as those following along this here thread know. I've knocked out about half of Dostoevsky in a few months, with a few more novellas/short stories and a few more full novels to go. I also recently picked up a 1989 copy of Ivan Turgenev's Fathers and Sons and intend to gradually pick up everything by Nikolai Gogol, Anton Checkov, and just a few others. I figure after these stories by Tolsoy, all I have left to read of Tolstoy is War and Peace and I've secured a copy of that, but that's going to be a serious tome. After these short stories I'm going to breeze through a few cyberpunk and sci-fi novels for a classic lit break.
Up next after this Tolstoy book, in a couple days I'll start Snow Crash, by Neal Stephenson.
