I've put together a collage of some books from last months What are you Reading? post. It's mostly random, but the more discussion something gets the more it stands out to me. Going forward I'm going to make a new post every month to talk about what people are reading.

Here is last months post. What are you Reading? (July 2023)

At any rate, what are you currently reading or plan to read in August?

Currently reading Blindsight, I'm honestly surprised how many people get interested when I tell them I'm reading about space vampires.

Needed it to take a break from all the new to me ideas in three body problem. Learned lots about chinese history. Wasnt ready for the second one.

Blindsight feels like all the scifi trope bundled together.

I love this story and its atmosphere. You might also want to take a look into the stories of the Sunflowers cycle by Peter Watts
