Currently reading The Vision of the Anointed by Thomas Sowell and the book I finished before it was Knellers Happy Campers by Edgar Kenet which is a short story that was adapted into a movie in like 06 called Wristcutters about a guy who kills himself and goes to an afterlife for all the people who committed suicide. I learned it was based on the short story so I found it for cheap and read it

Currently reading Dark Age (book 5 of the Red Rising Saga, because I'm in for the long haul it seems).
Previously read Beacon 23 (same writer as the Silo series), so that I can finally be one of "those people" who compare TV/movie adaptions to the book. I'm yet to watch the two episodes that dropped yesterday though.
I didn’t know Silo is based on a book. I will check it out. I’m wary of modern tv shows. Is it good? Is Red Rising Saga a fantasy series?
I'd place the Red Rising more into a science fiction genre, my succinct summary would be "Game of Thrones in space". It wasn't written as a young adult series, but it reads that way.
I devoured the three Silo books. I haven't gotten around to watching the first 2 episodes of Beacon 23 just yet, the trailer didn't curry any favour with me and you're right to be wary. Trailer: https://youtu.be/4vcrdDe-MSk
Thanks for creating the post, some interesting leads here.
Absolutely. Some I’ll have to get back to because I have a big stack of books in my immediate pile to read
