Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman - Believe the hype! I completely understand now why this is beloved. I went to a secondhand book shop looking for a copy and was told "We have to order them new. These books don't come to us otherwise." That says lat right there. #BookSky #BookRecommendation

The Way Home: Tales from a life without technology by Mark Boyle - I was a little disappointed. It wasn't so much tales of what it like to live without technology, but more the philosophy and pondering about technology. #BookSky #BookReview

Who is Government? The Untold Story of Public Service by Michael Lewis and others. I loved this series of essays. It highlights various people who work for the government and get things done without any formal recognition. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. #BookSky #BookRecommendation

Week 41: I've lost a total of 1.8 pounds (up 2.6 pounds this week). No new habits this week. Disappointed the weight went up, but I'm building muscle which does weigh more. Still hoping that number drops for next week as it is annoying to see when you have been under on calories. #50by50journey

Happy 6th birthday to the Magnificent 7 (Gary, Winston, Rudy, Loki, Nutmeg, Fiona, and Penelope)! Happy "I never have to do that again" to Hera! #caturday

Swim 12: 13 laps/26 lengths (1039 meters) all freestyle. Holding record of 4 lengths without stopping. Too many kids for a pic of the pool so you're stuck with my exhausted face. #50by50Journey

Hour of the Hunter by J.A. Jance. I haven't DNFed a book in a while, but I don't blame the book. The audiobook was terrible - monotone, no way to distinguish characters, and you heard his every breath. I listened for an hour and couldn't focus on the story enough to keep going. #BookSky #BookReview

The Sinister Mystery of the Mesmerizing Girl (Athena Club #3) - Theodora Goss - I love this series, and all three books are equally awesome. I don't see these books get recommend as much as they deserve. #BookSky #BookRecommendation

Coming Up Roses - Staci Hart - Disappointing. It was billed as a reverse Pride and Prejudice with the boys being the Bennett's. Other than their name, there's nothing resembling Jane Austen. Felt like it was a normal Rom-Com, with the names changed to market it that way. Lame. #BookSky #BookReview
