Started What If? by Randall Munroe.
It’s by the guy who runs / draws xkcd.com web comics, and gives serious scientific answers to absurd hypothetical questions. For example: Is it possible to build a jetpack using downward firing machine guns?
Questions are weird like that, but the science is real, so an interesting read. Specially if you are a fan of xkcd.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I am on book 5 of Cradle series by Will Wight. They’ve been super fun and fast paced, like little popcorn books.
The writing is serviceable, the characters are not super deep, but the world and exploration and discovery have been great. I didn’t think I would like the series but I’ve been pleasantly surprised and I think it’s definitely a good read between more difficult books because it’s a breeze getting through them.
I read a few book of it when I had Kindle Unlimited for couple of months for some reason. They were fun books, but nothing that made me subscribe to Unlimited for more months or outright buying them.
