The Ink Black Heart
The Ink Black Heart by Robert Galbraith, pen name of J.K. Rowling, is a large book that is impossible to read in bed without very strong muscles to keep it from smashing your face. If you like the Cormoran Strike novels, you might not like this one because it involves an online game and tedious amounts of chat sessions between moderators, sometimes to the point of three simultaneous sessions extending over many pages. Otherwise, it's not bad.
Troubled Blood
Troubled Blood is the fifth novel in the series by Robert Galbraith, and at this point I don't remember anything about it. Oh yeah, it involves a 40-year-old cold case.
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
Few books transform a generation and then establish themselves as touchstones for the generations that follow. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is one such book. This modern epic of a man’s search for meaning became an instant bestseller on publication in 1974, acclaimed as one of the most exciting books in the history of American letters. It continues to inspire millions.
A narration of a summer motorcycle trip undertaken by a father and his son, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance becomes a personal and philosophical odyssey into fundamental questions on how to live. The narrator's relationship with his son leads to a powerful self-reckoning; the craft of motorcycle maintenance leads to an austerely beautiful process for reconciling science, religion, and humanism. Resonant with the confusions of existence, this classic is a touching and transcendent book of life.
