I've just finished the third book in the three body problem series. Loved it, it completely blown my mind, and changed the way I think about space.
Unsure what to read next, I'm tempted to read the fourth three body book, but see mixed reviews online with it being by a different author.
Patrick Arminio (Sep 30 2024 at 10:25):I'd love to have a list of all the books mentioned, there were so many! /cc @Adam Stacoviak @Nick Nisi
Alex Barnes (Sep 30 2024 at 11:43):Yes me too, I was hoping they'd be in the show notes 🙏🏻
KBall (Sep 30 2024 at 18:19):My favorite recent books were the Teixcalaan series -- A Memory Called Empire and A Desolation Called Peace.
Very character driven books, and for reasons I can't even pinpoint exactly just resonated super powerfully with me.
Adam Stacoviak (Oct 01 2024 at 14:39):Updated this channel to be #bookclub cause I have plans :)
Anders Johansson (Oct 04 2024 at 19:13):Great stuff with bookclub channel. Will definitely get back with my reads.
Andrew O'Brien (Oct 10 2024 at 18:48):Refactoring Guru’s having a pretty big sale on their Design Patterns and Refactoring books. I haven’t read them, but the content on the site is some of my favorite treatments of both: https://refactoring.guru/store
