Bloggin' On: My Fall Reading List & Not-So-Random Thoughts

It's Friday, October 25, 2019, and it's a typically warm and muggy "fall" morning here in my corner of Florida. Currently, the temperature outside is 82℉ (28℃) under partly sunny skies. The humidity level is 85%, giving us an "endless summer" feels-like temperature of 91℉ (33℃). I' should try to get out and get fresh air and sunlight, but I'm not fond of humid heat, so I'll just stay indoors in the cool confines of my current domicile.
So, what am I reading this month, you ask? Take a seat, relax, and enjoy your favorite beverage while I share my October reading list.
Okay, so recently I finished reading this book by Timothy Zahn, although I must admit that I skimmed through parts of it so I could review it:

And because I tend to switch my attention from one book to another rather than just focus on one at a time, I'm still making my way through Rick Atkinson's The British Are Coming: The War for America, Lexington to Princeton, 1775-1777.
I have not one but two editions of this first volume of Atkinson's Revolution Trilogy: the hardcover edition and the 21-CD audiobook:

I still haven't gotten around to playing Strategic Command WWII: World at War, or WAW for short. I have been watching thehistoricalgamer's channel on YouTube to learn more about the game and to see a true war game buff play, but if I'm going to write a decent review, I have to spend more time playing WAW. So maybe I'll carve out some gaming time this weekend to do just that. It really depends on my mood, though, so we'll see what develops.
Well, that's it for this installment of Bloggin' On. It's been an hour since I started writing this post, and now my stomach is saying that it's time for lunch. So, until next time, I'll catch you guys on the sunny side!
