Even though I bought the 1859 edition of On the Origin of the Species, I started reading “Entangled Life” instead, thanks to a dramacel recommendation, @rDramaHistorian I'm on chapter 3 and the book is great.

Civilization of the Middle Ages by Norman Cantor (1963). Great pacing and narrative for such a big topic. I may be a chuddie and the author is a jewish chad but its a great book.
Also reading "The Sword of Christ" about Martin Luther and the argument against "uh the New Testament is Jewish propaganda". Its interesting so read it BIPOC I dont need your Richard Spencer or Vaush screed, ive heard it a million times.
I just read Bowling Alone which is a 90s NPR golden era of sociology about why the social fabric has decayed. Dry but interesting.
2 months ago I read skateboarder Rodney Mullens autobiography in 1 day. Best book ive read in a while. Fellow neurodivergents will love it.
