I’m reading The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce (Delphi edition) on my tablet.

Just finished Legendborn as well.

The Dark Forest by Liu Cixin is also what I’m reading (second book in the trilogy of The Three-Body Problem)

In terms of non-fiction:

Fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism (2nd Edition) by Otto Wille Kuusinen (highly recommended!)

Class, Race and Black Liberation by Henry Winston (also highly recommmend! …Though not before reading the prequel to the book Strategy for a Black Agenda)

Discussion questions:

What new books are you reading?

Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction?

Question of the week:

What books are you eager to read that you haven’t read yet?

Enjoy!

    Started reading “Origins of family and private property” by comrade Friedrich Engels. It’s a harder read than Lenin’s “State and revolution”, but I suppose it is expected from a scientific work. Interesting stuff, however. I like the unhurried, scientific approach to history and general matters. Goes to show that communism isn’t just “some people are angry at rich folk”, as it is often understood in popular culture.

    In terms of fiction… I’m kinda stuck there. Pretty much nothing I’ve tried starting these past weeks makes me want to continue reading. It’s all so tiresome

        Not only would I not mind, I would in fact welcome it!
