Lemmy World Rules

I've put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It's mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I'm going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

I forgot the story of Time Out of Joint by Philip K. Dick so I decided to read it again.

I´m reading select texts about what is grassroots-community action. It has been quite nice. The book is in Portuguese though.

Just finished reading an older series: Nine Princes in Amber. Doesn't age as well as I'd like.

I'm reading the Wool omnibus from the library before I start watching Silo.

You are the first person I've seen here since the show has released that decided to read the book first. I really need to read it at some point, but I am already in the middle of two books for book clubs.

Just started Illuminae the other day and I am powering through it. It's a completely different style book and I am loving the way the story is presented. Can't wait to finish it.

My wife and I are on T.A. White's Phoenix Chronicles. We both really love the series and once we finish this it will be hard to find a replacement series for us to read.
