Started reading 'Revolt of the Masses' by Jose Ortega y Gasset. Written ~1932. Makes Orwell look like an amateur psychic. Pretty scary stuff, history repeating itself.

[CS1983]

Just finished ?The Man Who Got Even With God?, by Fr. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.(Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance), about John Green Hanning, aka Br. Joachim. He was a Trappist monk in Kentucky who had run away from home due to a hot temper. He burned down his father?s tobacco curing barn with the year?s crop in it, and after 9 years as a cowboy near the Rio Grande went home to Kentucky. The story will amaze and convict.

Hmm, interesting, I'll have to look it up.

I finished Robert Crais', "A Dangerous Man", a Joe Pike novel. I've read most of Robert Crais books. Always good, easy reading, fast action detective stories.

Just finished Stephen Hunter's Gman, good read but I have enjoyed all of his books.

Eta: thinking about starting the Puzo collection over again.

Report from Engine Company 82

Written by a NYC firefighter from the 60s-70s, back when they used to hang on the back of the truck, had the bell system, pull boxes, the bronx was burning, everyone was OD'ing

It's an excellent quick read, almost a master class on how to stay cool under chaos and keep a sense of humor.

I’m on the wait list at the library for CJ Box’s Open Season. Recommended to me by a friend I introduced to the Longmire books and series.

I read the Forward and was like . Oh no, i'm not too sure this will be a good read. Based on the hug fest within

With that said. I started reading this 4 book complication around 11 one night. At 3 in the a.m. i had a hard time putting this one aside. Some parts wander a bit, but overall a good read.

Book 1 was written in 2017.

I say give it a try.
The guy knowledge of firearms , and or his outside sources are on it. There's even mention of (not by name) someone, few all of you will know, one way or the other. As well as places along the front range, everyone will say . Oh yeah i know that area..

I've been reading some of "The Culture" sci fi novels by Iain M. Banks. Interesting stuff from the far future. I'm about halfway through "Look To Windward".

The Commune, which Great-Kazoo mentioned in the post above mine was only $0.99 at the Kindle store, so I went ahead and bought it - will get around to reading it soon.

Just finished The Hunting Rifle by Jack O'Connor. It seemed fitting to read it right before hunting season.
