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?

    Which book are you starting with? You’ll get a very different vibe depending on whether you’re starting with Dreamweaver’s Dilemma, Shards of Honor, or The Warrior’s Apprentice.

    It’s a long series with a super wide range. If you like Warrior’s Apprentice, you’ll probably like most of the series.

      Started with shards of honor. Any recommendations on which one I should read next?

      I was about to pick up Seveneves next. And then come back to the Vorkosigan Saga.

        Either Barrayar (it directly continues the story from Shards) or Warrior’s Apprentice (published the same year as Shards, different story arc but relevant characters).

          Thanks for the recommendation. I heard Warrior’s Apprentice was rather basic. What’s your opinion on it, if you don’t mind me asking?

            Audacious.

            Miles, the main character, has tremendous audacity, and I found it hilarious!

            Huh, now I’m going to have to start re-reading the series :)
