Hollywood Godfather: My Life in the Movies and the Mob by Gianni Russo.
It's trash.
I would be disappointed if it wasn't.
I’m reading the book, the whole trilogy. I think it’s about 900 pages of very small type, so it’ll probably take me half a year.
I haven’t got very far - I’ve also got a The Wire magazine subscription, which is another hefty read, and my OCD means I have to read every word.
‘Letter 44’
Idea like ‘Another Life’ TV show, better written.

somewhat embarrassingly still have it sat unbegun, hiding in tier two of the bedside reading towers 😚
despite having a long time big admiration for AM’s stuff since 2000AD era D.R. & Quinch, Swamp Thing, etc, etc, I’ve rarely found his purely written output to be as enjoyable, Voice In The Fire something of a trawl for me & that was waaaay shorter
Brian Catling’s Vorrh trilogy is worth checking out
Yeah it’s a bit of an ordeal, I’m determined to get through it though.
Notice you have Electric Eden in the pile, that’s a good one.
Just finished 'Kill Your Friends' by John Niven - fantastic book about an A+R guys that is as ruthless as they come. It's a bit Irvine Welsh in part which I love - maybe not for the nervous but it is hilarious in parts.
I'm a devout Sci-Fi nut, space opera specifically, with favourites such as Peter F. Hamilton and Alastair Reynolds, but I just started a trip down memory lane (I'm 70) re-reading some books I haven't read since I was a teenager: Ian Fleming's James Bond novels.
OMG, talk about super-saturated political incorrectness! What a misogynistic prig! I just finished Casino Royale and was quite surprised at how closely the Daniel Craig version mirrors the original. Not sure if I'm going to be able to make through all of them as they are so jarring given the social perspective of today, but it does bring back a memories of my first readings.
That sounds great!! @slowmotionblues
Noticed some Sun Ra related books in your stacks @Paul16 must research those! Love his job application form, NASA really messed up there!
Yes, absolutely. One of my favorite movies.
😂🤣😂 excellent - the guy was a genius !
‘Space Is The Place’ by John F Szwed is probably the best one I’ve read
I just find his verbiage a bit overly dense, have loved his work in comic’s for years though
Yeah ‘tis that, have read that one through once.
Got one on Moondog in there too which I keep meaning to make time for.
@Paul16 Bookstacks....beware, there comes a point where they taunt you, I'm pretty certain a number of mine will outlive me....hasn't yet stopped the purchasing of the new however...
It doesn’t get more space opera-y than The Expanse series. I’m enjoying them a lot.
I knew you people were of like minds.
Oryx and Crake ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Black Hole Wars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
For those in the US and want library audiobooks
Libby, by OverDrive, Inc.
Such a good book, I have read it several times to the point that its starting to fall apart. Side note, the guy that owns the label I have been working with asked me to do a write up of how to describe my music, at said I was going for the musical equivalent of House of Leaves. Not that what I am doing is anywhere that interesting or experimental.
You gotta check out the Beastie book... well worth it. Make sure it's the audio version though.
Yeah house of leaves is something else, will never be a movie or audiobook I’m guessing 😆
After looking at the list of narrators I had to dig into the Beastie book. Great stuff so far @SanMateo
@BlueGreenSpiral
Enjoy!!
The Dresden Files. I read pretty much exclusively Sci-fi and Fantasy when it comes to books, and this one is pretty unique in a good way.
Quite plausible ! That or being crushed in the night when they finally topple
It’s really great @SanMateo

For those reading The Expanse series, I really recommend reading the short stories/novellas in-between. And skip the comics
Besides that, the best I've read this year have been:
I'm currently re-reading Hopscotch by Julio Cortázar. I don't know yet if I'm gonna love it as much as I did 20 years ago.
Started with the Wolverton Bible today. Probably one of the coolest books I've seen and read in my live. With graphics all by the master himself.
One of the most moving books I've read recently is "Lincoln in the Bardo," by George Saunders. It's odd, for sure, and like "Cloud Atlas" (by David Mitchell), it is a bit of a game. But it's just so moving. And the audiobook, read by a huge cast featuring Nick Offerman, David Sedaris, Bill Hader, Julianne Moore, Susan Sarandon, Keegan Michael-Key, is phenomenal.
Also fantastic? The Beastie Boys audiobook (mentioned earlier) is a blast. Really funny.
Reading the coming Malcolm Gladwell, "Talking to Strangers," and it's great, especially if you like his Revisionist History podcast.
Interesting one that. If an audiobook is 'read' by a cast is it not a (sort of) performance play reading. I dunno. Nor does it matter, but in this era where the simple podcast/audible talking things is finally so huge (radio revisited) I sense there wll be more delineation coming...And ALSO, I will no doubt now spend time thinking of the books that while maybe not suitable (or too expensive) to be filmed, could be recorded with extra voices for much extra color etc.
Almost every book that can be an audiobook has already been done @JohnnyGoodyear
Infinite Jest is up on Audible!!
Plenty of new versions of existing audiobooks have been rereleased with well known voice actors and higher production values. The Handmaid's Tale, Dracula, The Stand (Stephen King), Emma (Jane Austen) are recent ones that spring to mind.
That George Saunders one won all the awards @ExAsperis99
Need to hear what the fuss is about soon 🙂
Sounds like the beloved BBC radio adaptations of my otherwise unkempt youth...
I've listened to a quite few of those BBC radio ones, most are top quality!
I am currently reading the audiobus forum. Does it count?
Is it good? Yes ! Very good !
I’ve just finished Lonely Courage by Rick Stroud. It’s the accounts of the female SOE agents parachuted into occupied France during WW2.
It is at once uplifting, exhilarating & come the end a bit of a heartbreaker when you come to learn of the shocking details of the demise of some of those brave women
