Also, a little over a month ago (if that counts as recently) I finished my re-read of The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution by Richard Dawkins. I made a submission about it too -

I read a lot of books and you can find some of them on my blog. Link in bio.

If you want a fun read and you like sci-fi, check out Ed by qntm (https://qntm.org/ed). It is a short read, like 130 pages or so.

I've been reading Alastair Reynolds's books. They are pretty good.
