Rarely read fiction, but my brother gave me an "Easy Rawlins" detective novel, "Joe Charcoal". Found it good reading to fall asleep with. An 'occasional' read. Should be made into a movie or TV series.

Back to "Book of Submarines" by Brayton Harris. A political, social & military history of the submarine.

Just arrived today to complement my deep dive into Russian history as a concurrent, not wholly unrelated reading project--sort of like going back to school and taking at least two courses at the same time.
