📚 If you are in The Reader’s Republic - keep a look out for the invite to the next meeting and a short email taking you to the notes from the day - with links to the recording and the list of books - with links - we talked about.

I promise that I didn’t plan it this way but the last three meetings of 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic differ in length by only 14 seconds.

📚 Coming to the end of my Rebus … so got another ‘tome’ lined up. It is nearly 1,000 pages long - which I think is a great reason for reading it digitally - but I won’t.

📚Great Meeting Of 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic today - wonderful book recommendations that I am documenting. Notes to follow.

‘Time Flies’

🎶 a track on ‘The Innocent'

📚 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic Invite was just sent out for May 15th/16th - let me know if you didn’t receive it.

📚 I just added 🔗 A Good Hard Kick in the Ass by Rob Adams to my ‘want to read list’ … anybody else tried it?

📚 Just looking out ahead and realized that I still need to come up with my two books for the next meeting of 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic.

Just discovered 🔗 Future Wealth by Stanley M. Davis 📚 and added it to my ‘want to read’ bookshelf. The summaries I have read put it right in the middle of my 🔗 People First thinking

📚The Cellist by Daniel Silva

Just finished reading: 🔗 The Cellist by Daniel Silva 📚

Definitely a good read … kept me turning the pages … though I take issue with him being described as ‘the new LeCarre … or am I just being overly defensive of one of my ‘4 Johns’.

That all said, the most amazing thing about this book is that following Jan 6th 2021 he revised the book top to bottom in 6 weeks. Not that this should cause you to read it … but absolutely testament to his desire for realism in his books.

This was my first Silva … but it won’t be my last.
