Here is a list of what I read this week. All articles from the Wall Street Journal will require a subscription (sorry); most blog posts are from writers that have piqued my interest for one reason or another.
Books
The Magdalene Deception by Gary McAvoy. I did not finish (DNF) this book. Perhaps, I have grown tired of the genre, but by the 50% mark, I was still waiting to get interested.
The Big Dark Sky by Dean Koontz. Started. I have been a fan of Dean Koontz for a long time, and I look forward to reading another of his books.
Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman. Reading.
I, Asimov: A Memoir by Isaac Asimov. Reading.
