The Book Page -- My Autumn Reading Program -- Update -- Octoober 22, 2022

My summer reading program. 

My autumn reading program has begun.

• The Absent Superpower: The Shale Revolution and a World Without America, Peeter Zeihan, 2017.
  
• Breathless: The Scientific Race to Defeat a Deadly Virus, Daviid Quammen, 2022.
• The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race, Walter Isaacson, March 9, 2021
  
• Spike: The Virus vs. The People - the Inside Story, Jeremy Farrar, Anjana Ahuja, July 22, 2021
• Like a Rolling Stone: A Memoir, Jann S Wenner, September 13, 2022
  
• The Silk Roads: A New History of the World, Peter Frankopan, March 7, 2017
  
• Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones, James Clear, October 16, 2018

I'm currently reading the Jann Wenner memoir. Reading it slowly. Savoring it. Incredible book. This is now the third book I've read in the last six months that covers the 60s so well:

• Like a Rolling Stone: A Memoir, Jann S Wenner, September 13, 2022
• A Song For Everyone: The Story of Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Lingan, c. 2022;
• Everybody Thought We Were Crazy: Dennis Hopper, Brooke Hayward and 1960s Los Angeles, Mark Rozzo, c. 2022

Of the three, the John Lingan's book was least enjoyable to read but great, great story of CCR. 

Jann Wenner, by far, is the best of the three. 

To complement these three books with regard to the 60s, two documentaries:

• American Playboy: The Hugh Hefner Story, an Amazon original, 2017;
• The Sound of 007, an Amazon original, 2022.
