I am SO HAPPY that you loved The Power of the Dog 🔥 such an insane book
What a great reading month you had!
The book is so good! More people need to read it.
What a packed month!! Love all the cool niche stuff you read-I desperately need to get into Le Guin’s sci-fi.
Love your Glen Cook completionist project, very much something I’d do too-finding these random standalones that no one reads is 🔥 even if they end up disappointing 😅
This was a wild month. This whole "mood reading" thing is quite the rollercoaster 😂
One of the best parts of The Lathe of Heaven was George Guidall's narration. I loved it so much. I think you would like it.
Cook's standalones have been less than stellar so far but I will refrain from making a final judgment until I read the last four.
It is strange. I can see how some people would love each standalone but they just weren't for me.
Confederacy of Dunces. I've heard of that title but I know nothing about the book. I'm looking forward to seeing the video that you plan on doing about it or it's reviews. Thank you -James
I have a video I made where I talk about the book. It was one of my reading projects for April.

what a great set of books, man! I love Chabon
I am looking forward to reading more of Chabon's work in the future.
since you like Sherlock stories, try Chabon's Final Solution. it's FANTASTIC
@@gronskeibooks I will keep an eye out for it. Thanks!
That's a wide range of books. Nice stuff. You've already read Instrumentalities of the Night?
Not yet. I'm really looking forward to it.
You should read a feast unknown by Philip Jose Farmer
No u

DO NOT read outlawed by Anna North in your western era. God, that book was horrid.
Thanks for the warning 😂
