Khadaji’s Whatcha Reading Thread - August 2022 edition

A previous thread that may be of interest: Into The Wild

Ah! I liked that a lot, although I found the ending… implausible, for reasons I’ll be glad to explain when you’re done.

Over the weekend I zipped through On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder, a short but engaging book about how we can all, forewarned and forearmed, help preserve democracy.

Now I’ve begun Putting the Rabbit in the Hat, the actor Brian Cox’s autobiography. He’s good in everything I’ve ever seen him appear in, most recently Succession. In the early pages of the book he’s telling me more about his impoverished Dundee childhood than, truth be told, I really want to know, but for now I’m just enjoying his Scottish accent and looking forward to learning more about his career.
