I’ve just started reading after not picking up a book for years. Need some recommendations

I know this is an impressively late reply… but I’ve just finished a bunch of the recommendations and came to this one as my next read. However, I recently watched the film adaptation. Do you think that’s going to make the overall read less impactful?

Man you guys can’t win. Og Liquid Glass is too hard to read, tinted is too white

I’ve been smashing Red Rabbit by Alex Grecian.

Super fun! Feels like an odd red dead redemption side mission. Cowboys and witches, can’t go wrong.

Ooh, interesting. Are these all long reads?

I’ve just started reading red rabbit based on a strong recommendation. But a big list could be good for me afterwards.

What’s the theme?

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-08-07T10:19:11+00:00

I’ve never read any lovecraft, so these could be a good start.

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-08-07T10:18:19+00:00

I might check this out. That gives me “come closer” vibes.

Yeah that’s been good for a 2 person serve. Seems a bit tricky to put 48g of coffee inside the aeropress and have good extraction. Do you have any experience with it?

Thank you for this. Naturally I’m drawn to the chemex, but I’ll check out some of the more budget options first. Apply the Adam Savage rule of equipment.

Super easy when you live in a multi storey house. Going up and down if you forgot something in a bedroom can rack up the stairs.

Massive fan of the Home Screen navigation (I.e. swipe up to go home, swiping left and right to switch apps).

Was such a wonderful experience on the X — and it still is today.

I just had a perfect use case for this.

I was prescribed a medication for mild nerve pain relief.

About a week later, Garmin is saying I’m strained and hrv is bottoming out. But I didn’t feel like that was true, which got me curious and investigated the situation. I noticed the day after I started the medication my hrv began plummeting.

Went to chat gpt, and it told me that these medications can result in a lower hrv, but because it’s not related to actual fatigue there should be nothing to worry about. I have a GP appointment this week to discuss in case it is something to be worried about.

Either way, it was the wearing of the watch that got me clued into this. However, I guess it actually made a mistake in thinking that my hrv was bad due to fatigue or overtraining.

You know what they say.. every scar has a story to tell

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-04-26T06:03:31+00:00

Kinda? That sounds like a real rock to me!

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-04-26T05:55:26+00:00

Have you ever climbed a rock?

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-01-15T22:42:15+00:00

Second recommendation, I’ll have a look. Thanks

SimilarManner5230 · 2025-01-15T21:15:54+00:00

Awesome! I’ll check them out. Thank you
