Ask HN: Which book are you reading these days?

Read Shadow Divers which was really good. Saw it suggested a lot and it did not disappoint.

Now reading The Pearl by Steinbeck and Red Dwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers by Grant Naylor.

If you liked Freakonomics, you will like this. It's not a rant, just one example after another of how we fail to account for half of the population.

I just finished The God of Small Things. The writing is phenomenal, but it was not quite my kind of book, so it took me a bit of effort to finish.

The Seven Military Classics Of Ancient China : Sun Tzu isn't the only military strategist on the block.

Kaplan and Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry: I make sure to study at least one university/high school textbook on any subject that I find interesting.

Also, not reading but watching Professor Jiang Xueqin's lectures [0] has been pivotal towards helping me find new avenues to research and understand geopolitics .
