The History of Ancient Egypt by Bob Brier
adventurous
slow-paced
4.5
This man knows his history. Lots of fun.
The Burning God by R.F. Kuang
4.5
I wasn't a fan of the first two books. Characters were written like a YA novel. But that changed in this last book. The main character sees these characters in those terms. A great end, but the slog was worth it.
White Noise by Don DeLillo
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
4.5
A story about a man dealing with Capitalism, so doesn't work out well. But still very enjoyable, if you in enjoy postmodernism.
Babylon: Mesopotamia and the Birth of Civilization by Paul Kriwaczek
slow-paced
3.0
Wish there were more new ideas. Just giving me things I know and adding a modern twist. If you don't know anything about masadonia, I'm sure it's good.
Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
3.5
I enjoyed it. Just read 2 other books with the plot of House of Usher. Just burnt out. So, it's definitely better then 3.5. Just too predictable for me at this time.
The Triumph of Christianity: How a Forbidden Religion Swept the World by Bart D. Ehrman
medium-paced
4.5
Learned some new things... Nice.
