I see what you did there lol
A Killer's Mind by Mike Omer
Amazing detective book. I've read the half, and it's so interesting.
It's the first book in the series; there are three, if I'm not mistaken.
If you are into detectives - highly recommend

There's a movie called Sports and Hitler?
Sounds like my kids holidays with my father.
Ask them what they did at Grandads and the young fella will say "Darts, Snooker, Hitler and Trump".
The Hittler part is more WW2. He isn't a Trump fan, just looks at all of the news as he's an idiot. Trump not my father, well maybe the second one as well.
Nah, the movie and the book is The Boys in the Boat and its written like a novel based on a true story about a rowing team from a college in the states that against the odds made the olympics in Berlin when Hitler was on his roll (Jesse Owens made the same US olympics team.)
"The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" by Rebecca Skloot.

Currently reading comics.
Re-read IDW GI Joe. Still re-reading the GI Joe A Real American hero IDW comics.
Also gone/going through the SkyBound Transformers and GI Joe comics.
Been back re-reading some Wolverine comics and got a few more ready to read.
Need to get back to reading Star Wars Thrawn Alliances (I have cheated and read the comic ) and the Reacher novel I started.

Making my way through a few older famous crime/thriller series that I downloaded onto my Kobo eReader a few years back - James Patterson's "Alex Cross" series (which I had already read a few of like 20+ years ago), Lee Child's "Reacher" series and Patricia Cornwell's "Kay Scarpetta" series in particular.
I've also been slowly getting through Steve Berry's "Cotton Malone" series over the past 20 odd years, which can be a little more adventurous in an almost Indiana Jones kinda way (ex government agent who gets caught up in international plots that have him battling baddies in all kinds of historical places around the world.
)
Also got Philip K Dick's "Man in the High Castle" cued up to read again soon (first read at least 15 years back), after watching some of the Amazon Prime series during a mates housesit (I might have to subscribe to Prime for a little bit to binge the rest of the series!)

I love Larry McMurtry
I reread the Lonesome Dove books and Duanes Depressed a while ago.
It's might be time to dig out some of his older stuff
At the moment I'm following Stuart MacBride and John Connolly.
MacBride does gritty Scottish crime with lots of gory bits and Connolly has a series about a private investigator in the US
And James Lee Burke is awesome
The earliest Silmarillion with notes by Christopher Tolkein.
Plus Tragically I Was An Only Twin - the complete Peter Cook.
