Just finished reading Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild which I liked a lot more than the movie. The book fleshes out certain characters that were only briefly mentioned in the movie. I'll pick up Michio Kaku's Einstein's Cosmos next.

I'm also studying Jeremy Silman's The Amateur's Mind which is a really good chess book in my opinion.

Is it readable without having read the previous books in the series?

Absolutely, I hadn't read any previous books. Not sure about others but I really enjoy fiction that encompasses real locations/places in history, it really makes for an interesting read.

I.E. Go wikipedia "Doomsday vault" it's actually very interesting, and real :).

    • Apple releases iOS 26.5.2 with dozens of security fixes for iPhone

      By Nas · Posted

      I'm still rocking iOS 25.x on my primary phone cuz iOS 26 still has usability quirks (mostly aesthetic and thus its UX) which I don't wanna deal with -- and I've been piloting them with all of these updates on my backup phone, so I'm well aware of its "improvements" since iOS 26 was first released (compared to version 26.5.x).
