I'm currently reading three books:

1. Finding Ultra by Rich Roll. This book follows Rich's adventures through overcoming various addictions; becoming one of the world's most fittest men, from almost having a heart attack just before the age of 40. As I'm looking at improving my fitness, this book serves as a motivator for getting myself in shape!

2. Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins. I haven't actually started this one yet, but he is a friend of the aforementioned Rich Roll. This book is very similar in nature to Finding Ultra , but focuses on building mental health - with a primary focus being improvements to being able to stand-up to people a bit more! This helps with my current job - haha!

3. 12 Rules to Life: An Antidote to Chaos by Dr. Jordan B. Peterson. Okay... this one is a bit like marmite, due to the author's notoriety for being very outspoken against current political correctness. However, I am interested in his lectures on psychology - and, this is the reason for reading this book.
I like Volvos.

I try to spend not to spend more than $50 on books a month. The wait for Season of the Witch is killing me, I'll wait another month and if its not available at Chapters by October 5th I'll get someone to order it for me on Amazon.ca and pay them.

Just bought Salvation by Peter F. Hamilton for $8.65 ($5 Plum Point Discount). After reading the first 2 pages I can say with confidence that this book isn't a rehash of the Commonwealth universe. Looking forward to purchasing Salvation Lost in mass market paperbound next october. Great North Road is also at a affordable price at $11.99.

I couldn't hold it in any longer. Got someone to order Season of the Witch on amazon.ca for $22, it will arrive at his house anywhere from september 13th to 19th. I also finished Bastard Legion: Friendly Fire and now I'm reading War Criminals.
