Currently reading Lords of Chaos about the history and influence of Black metal in Nordic countries. Super interesting stuff.

I’ve also been digging Kings of the Wyld, a fantasy book about a a group of old mercenaries who have to “get the band back together” to save the lost daughter of one of their members. Lots of fun “band” and “music” references throughout, and it’s also funny and has a lot of heart.

I’m going on vacation next week and looking to read some interesting - and easy- nonfiction. I guess you could say I’m looking for “pop nonfiction” or “airport nonfiction”. Stuff that’s informative and easy to read for the average reader. Recently, stuff I’ve enjoyed in this vein includes: An Immense World by Ed Yong, Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake, and Caste by Isabel Wilkerson.

^^anyone have any suggestions along those lines?
