Ask HN: Books to Read?

3 points by jklein11 ↗ HN
Trying to round out my reading list. What have you read recently that was interesting? I'm looking for all genre's: fiction, non fiction, technical, non-technical, anything.

At the risk of contributing to the AI fatigue: The 4 GTP papers in order of publication.

I'm also in the middle of the following:

1. Software Engineering at Google (O'Reilley)

2. The Worm Ouroboros by E. R. Eddison

3. Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake

I liked some of Eddidon's writing, although he was condemned for plagiarism. (He stole some ancient Greek poetry, which he used without acknowledgement in at least one of his books.) The book I read and enjoyed, long ago, was "A Fish Dinner In Memison".
I have 10 years of reading history and 1 year of reviews for you to browse! Please let me know if you have any questions about specific books, authors, or genres.

I’ve had a lot of luck picking up books “considered the greatest”. I maintain a list of lists on this page:
