I read books for fun and learning, Caught up on Sanderson, starting a journey of Ursula K. LeGuin and Malazan by Steven Erikson, will always read another Piers Anthony or Patrick Rothfuss or Neal Stephenson or Jonathan Franzen. History and Biography when Nonfiction suits like a Robert Caro. White whales maybe someday are Nightside the long Sun, Infinite Jest, and Ulysses.
