What is everyone reading at the moment?

I made an effort to stick to one book at a time a while back. I broke my rule

Well, Mark, no one can accuse you of not having eclectic taste in your choice of books.

StarShip Troopers - RA Heinlein

Rereading for the umpteenth time.  Really describes exactly the events leading up to the global authoritarian fascist military government almost as if it was recording history as opposed to science fiction.  Heinlein was a genius.  We would do well to hold our military to the same disciplinary standards and repercussions for failure outlined in the book if we want the results we are entitled to expect.

The thing that impressed me the most about that novel was his notion of the powered armour, which inspired any number of stories involving "mechs", including the entire Mecha genre of Anime.
Plus they're actually working on that technology now, as in powered prosthetic limb replacements and the Boston Dynamics projects

Reagan caught Hell for having him as an advisor but it was wise; he was every bit as much a political philosopher as any from the Hoover Institute. One could suggest he was the brains behind the SDI that ultimately led Soviets to throw in the towel.

Rules for Radicals - Saul Alinsky

We’re living it so thought reread worthwhile

Saw Punke indepth interview on C-Span; interesting....

As introduced in Wikipedia: Lockdown is a 2020 mystery thriller by Scottish crime writer Peter May, set against the background of a deadly influenza pandemic. May wrote the novel in 2005, but it was rejected by publishers[1] as being unrealistic. During the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting lockdowns in 2020, the book was finally published.

Just picked this up. It looks to be good. 

I am almost 3/4 of the way through this book and like the three others in this series (this is the culminating one) I am completely engrossed in it.  In fact, I believe I have read all of Carlos Ruiz Zafón's published novels, starting with Shadow of the Wind and including his young adult novels.  Sadly, he died in June at the age of 55.

Finally finished "Abaddon's Gate", third in the "The Expanse" series by James S. A. Corey.
Dramatic action-packed ending.

Now I've just started reading an English translation of Haruki Murakami's "Wind-Up Bird Chronicle"


Of the author wikipedia says:

 His fiction, sometimes criticised by Japan's literary establishment as un-Japanese,[7][8] was influenced by Western writers from Chandler to Vonnegut by way of Brautigan. It is frequently surrealistic and melancholic or fatalistic, marked by a Kafkaesque rendition of the "recurrent themes of alienation and loneliness"[9] he weaves into his narratives.

Well, there's a big piece of the puzzle.
