Red Harvest by Anne Applebaum. Enlightening read (given the current situation in Ukraine). unfortunately Anne Applebaum didn’t spend quite as much time talking about the 5 year plan as I would have hoped. If anyone has any suggestions of books about the 5 year plan that would be greatly appreciated.

Currently reading The Hot Zone by Richard Preston. Oh wow wee this book is good! Terrifying, but good

Rerun: The Ice Limit and Riptide by Preston and Child

Red Phoenix by Larry Bond this one was tough. It really wasn’t a good enough book to be 23hr and 28 mins long.

Now onto
Sharpe’s Tiger by Bernard Cornwell

The Like Switch - Jack Schaefer

I’m just making my way through everything recommended in the articles here. Not hugely a fan of this one tbh, it started interesting but now just seems a bit obvious and repetitive. I’ll finish it though as it didn’t take me long to get about 50% through.

Damn! You’ve got some awesome ā€œenduranceā€! I tap out at a 15 hour max for all practical purposes. When I see something that’s over that - I’m always like, nope - I’m out. lol

:rofl: I made it through The Passage by Justin Cronin. 36 hrs 49 mins
I think that’s the longest one I have listened to yet.
Sad part is I did the whole trilogy.

The Twelve was 26hrs 23 mins
City of Mirrors 29hr 29 mins.

My gnat-like attention span and I are IMPRESSED. Clearly, I’m going to need to ā€œtrainā€ if I want to aspire to your greatness. I may need some tutorials and program recommendations (preferably in audio format and <15 hours). :rofl:
