pickI'm going to miss Jack's adventures. The last book I started in September. I'm glad that @OutsmartYourShelf is flexible with #SPNBookBingo2025. This might be reaching, but ...you can't ignore the number.

pickThis is classic Tom Clancy with developed characters and a ton of technical detail. I loved this book when I read it in the 90‘s and I also loved the movie. This time around the book felt a little dated, but the political drama and suspense makes this large book a quick read.
pick54/100 Alternate history has always been my favorite subgenre of science fiction, and few writers do it better than Turtledove. What if Truman used the atomic bomb to end the war in Korea? The results are horrific, and this is only the first book of the trilogy. Moscow, Kiev, Leningrad, Portland, Seattle and Los Angles gone up in atomic mushrooms. I did find it a little unrealistic that that much radiation from this destruction wasn't killing ⬇️
Somewhere to the south and east lay Hungnam, the North Korean port on the Sea of Japan.

I‘ve read 38 cover-to-cover. My total is 46 if you count the ones I DNFd, which I am. I‘ve attempted Crime and Punishment and The Hobbit at least 3 times each. I will never finish them. The tagged book is one of my favorites from the list, although I bet it hasn‘t aged well. Several of these I read BECAUSE of The Great American Read, like Bless Me, Ultima, and I bought copies of a few others that I haven‘t gotten to like the Sister Souljah . #tlt
The roar of gunfire and the acrid scent of burning sand filled the air as Staff Sergeant Ryan “Hawk” Hawkins crouched behind a crumbling stone wall, his rifle locked and loaded. Beside him, a lean, scarred Belgian Malinois named Trinity stood tense, ears pricked, waiting for the signal. The dog had been his partner through two deployments, her keen instincts and unwavering loyalty saving his life more times than he could count.
New Patreon episode just dropped. We discuss many of the books pictured. And, it's audio so you can't see it but the cat stared at me the whole time we were recording.

Something just occurred to me - did you see the list of prompts in the word doc? I know a couple of other people missed them initially, so weren't aware of them. 2w
