Loosely based on Stoic Philosophy. Interesting.

I recently bought a Kindle and am so happy with it. Wish I had bought it sooner. I'm currently reading The Habit of Rivers by Ted Leeson. It's a narrative on why many of us find trout fishing so intertwined in our lives. Most enjoyable.

The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden. A Russian fairy tale set in around the year 1100. Russia officially has become Christian but the old pagan spirits still exist. A young girl, daughter of an exiled noblewoman who died giving birth to her, has inherited powers that allow her to contend with forces set against her family. Even has an evil stepmother, what more can you ask?

It's pretty good, but the style he used is different from the way he usually writes. It reads more like a children's book in that he is telling the stories in a very simple, but funny way. It took me a couple of stories to start enjoying the style. If you have been reading the Iron Druid books by Kevin Hearne, then it is good background for that series. It's a good quick read that was hard to put down. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I expected.

Man my mind is going as I get older. It's Jack Krakauer, not Kerouac.

Just finished The Girl With All The Gifts by M.R. Carey. I love zombie and dystopian books and this didn't disappoint.

Now I am reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
