Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 02/10/2026#booksky #bookreview Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah, Richard Bach, 1977, 192p 5/10 This one took more than half the book to get going. I didn’t like all of the airplane stuff throughout, I don’t like aviation. That put me off, but I kept going... 190

Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 25/09/2026#bookreview #booksky The Eight Master Lessons of Nature, Gary Ferguson, 2019, 272p, audio 6.5/10 While I did enjoy this book, it didn’t really make an impact on me. Its been a week since I finished it and I can’t think of anything specific that was discussed. 150
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Anything like this needs to consider the weight of the vehicle. 1000 miles driven by a Civic are very different than 1000 miles driven by an electric Hummer. I would be very supportive of something like this. Also, is this you in the article @alerigolon.bsky.social ? 110
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 18/09/2026#bookreview #booksky Hey Yang, Where's My Thousand Bucks, Andrew Yang, 2026, 240p 8/10 I’ve real all of Andrew Yang’s books over the years (even ones by people who weren’t “the” Andrew Yang), and I think this is the best written of all of his books. /1 150

Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I just started re reading the Fart Quest series by Aaron Reynolds illustrated by @camkendell.bsky.social I stand by my opinion that this series is one of the all time greats! I'm looking forward to all the fragrant jokes and adventures! #booksky 040
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 11/09/2026#bookreview #booksky Daisy Jones and the Six, Taylor Jenkins Reid, 2019, 355p, audio 2/10 I went in with high hopes for this one because I’ve really liked some of the author’s other books and I’ve had friends tell me good things about this book. /1 161
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 06/09/2026@alerigolon.bsky.social do you think big cottonwood canyon is going to be crazy this afternoon? Since fall colors haven't started yet, I think it should be somewhat tame even though it's a holiday weekend 000
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 04/09/2026#booksky #bookreview Biological War, Annie Jacobsen, 2026, 426p, audio 7.5/10 I thought this was a good followup to her book Nuclear War. I didn’t find it as compelling as Nuclear war, probably because the whole concept of biological war is a bit more foreign to me. /1 170

Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 23/08/2026#bookshy #bookreview Imagine the God of Heaven, John Burke, 2023, 320p Did not finish I read about half of this, but it was just too preachy for me. It is personal accounts mingled with tons of trying to prove Christianity by trying to prove the Bible is true. /1 111
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 23/08/2026#booksky #bookreview Hekate, Nikita Gill, 2025, 348p, audio Did not finish I had a really hard time getting into this one. I listened to about 75% of it, but I was constantly zoning out. It may have been because of the narrator’s strong British accent. 070
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Dems need to be cost that every acre of protected land will be protected again as soon as possible with no economic consideration for those logging/mining/exploring. Economic uncertainty is the only way to left to protect the land 000
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 14/08/2026#bookreview #booksky Do Aliens Speak Physics, Daniel Whiteson, Andy Warner, 2025, 272p 6/10 I enjoyed this book, when I understood what it was saying. I think I am fairly well versed, for a lay person, with modern physics, but I had such a hard time keeping up with it. /1 160
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 14/08/2026#booksky #bookreview Replay, Ken Grimwood, 310p, 1987, audio 6.5/10 I liked the premise of this book. It was an enjoyable read that kept moving pretty quickly and kept me engaged. The ending, however, didn’t really seem like an ending; /1 140
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 07/08/2026#bookreview #booksky The Four Hour School Day, Durenda Wilson, 2021, 224p, audio 2/10 The title of the book is summed up in a sentence or two. If you home school, you can give more direct instruction and teach your kids in less time each day. /1 150

Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 24/07/2026#bookreview #booksky Walden, Henry David Thoreau, 377p, 1854, audio 5/10 I really wanted to like this book, and I did like the first part where he first moved to Walden pond and was discovering the simple life. /1 1101
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 24/07/2026#bookreview #booksky The Meaning of Your Life, Arthur Brooks, 2026, 304p, audio 6.5/10 The author seemed to have a lot of good things to say, and I liked a lot of what he wrote. Its been a couple weeks,and I’ve forgotten everything that was in the book, so there wasn’t anything too special to me. /1 150
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 10/07/2026#bookreview #booksky Take Me To Your Leader, Neil Degrasse Tyson, 230p, 2026, audio 6.5/10 Decent. I enjoyed listening to it, but there wasn't anything new here if you've listened at all to his podcast. This one seemed lower effort than his other books. 060

There were definitely parts that I zoned out, as it got long sometimes, but I really liked how the whole story came together. /1 130
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 26/06/2026#bookreview #booksky The Ballerina of Auschwitz, Edith Eva Eger, 2024, 184p, audio 9/10 I've read/listened to many WW2/Holocaust books and this one stands out amongst them all. It is heartbreaking the whole way through, and amazing how matter of fact the author is. /1 160
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 23/06/2026This seems great, but 8 hope it doesn't end up showing things can always get worse 000
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 19/06/2026#bookreview #booksky When the Cranes Fly South, Lisa Ridzen, 308p, 2024, audio 6/10 I've read/listened to a lot of end of life books, but always from the 3rd person point of view. I very much appreciated the point of view in this book, as it is first person of the aging person. /1 170

This one had a good hook and intro, but I didn't think it stayed that strong through the entire book. 010
Fluffy @zildjianaxeman.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Sorry to say but the #Utah CD-1 debate was very disappointing. None of the candidates seemed to separate themselves from anybody else. All of the questions were basically "are you a progressive?" with very little opportunity for anybody to differentiate themselves or have a unique opinion. #utpol 110
