"Liberty's Secrets" by Joshua Charles. Clever title as there are no "Secrets" within, only important information that may be mostly overlooked or forgotten by many of today's, and even yesterday's, generation. Highly recommended.
Tonight I'll start reading, " Cobras In His Garden" by Harry Kursh. The biography of William E. Haast. Know as Bill Haast of the Miami Serpentarium. I just watched, 3 weeks ago, a home video of him milking a King Cobra & his assistant placed a large black snake around my neck, I was 5 years old.

I've been on an Isaac Asimov kick lately, before that it was a Philip K Dick kcik. I got on the Hitchhiker's Guide (Douglas Adams) series, and the Dark Tower Series (Stephen King). I just finished 2001: A Space Odyssey.
More to the point I listened to them. I usually do Audible on my way to and from work. It takes me a long time to read a book and I rarely have the time to sit and read, except for the 2+ hours of commute a day.
I'm currently reading The Devil's Dictionary, Tales, and Memoirs by Ambrose Bierce. Fun stuff.
