A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

CHRONICLES OF A LIQUID SOCIETY - Umberto Eco
This is the last collection of articles that have been mined since Eco's death in 2016. This collection is taken from his regular column in l'Espresso magazine.
There are 116 column's and they cover pretty much everything, daily life, cell phones, education, religion and philosophy, media, conspiracies, books and stupidity.
They are all short and for someone with a brain the size of the writer very accessible.
These are an absolute joy to read and can be recommended as the perfect summer beach book.
Spend the money and buy this book.
