I'm still going through "Waning of the Middle Ages" on @GetLexApp.

Highly recommended. Incredible book. Incredible look into medieval history..

I just finished listening to this book on @GetLexApp

It’s filled with the most incredible anecdotes about duels. At one point he says, “The duel descends to domestic murder and to the heights of civil war”.

This book takes you to both places and many others in between!

Empire-Builders,

I am pleased to announce that the inaugural read of our book club is Washington: A Life by Ron Chernow (2011). The timing is doubly auspicious, seeing as today is World Book Day and 72 days from now is our nation’s 250th birthday.

Clocking in at 928 pages and 300,000+ words, this book is on the longer side, so we’ll set aside 3 weeks to complete it (May 14th). I know we all have things going on. I am moving to San Francisco and have an 8-hour drive ahead of me with a car full of books, so the plan is to switch between the audiobook, ebook (which I am reading on Lex), and physical book (once it arrives at my new place).

The Empire-Builders book club is free. Anyone can join, read along, and stay tuned for the official review, a list of companion works, guest posts, and more. There is one paid tier ($9.99/month or $95.99/year) that gets you the following:

1. The ability to nominate and vote on the next book
2. Livestreamed discussions
3. 100% off Lex Premium (Lex is a social app for reading, built and maintained by myself)

I remain open to your feedback about any of the logistics, including reading pace, paid perks, the cadence for our discussions (weekly? biweekly? chapter-ly?). There will be a lot to figure out, but we’ll take it as it comes.

I hope you'll join us.

@ChrisKindaReads @MemoryMedieval I am listening to it right now on @GetLexApp. @MemoryMedieval actually reads it- he’s got a good voice for it! Some of the duelling stories are wild

It’s called we do a little TikTok

[Empire-Builders @EmpiresPod]

So recently I've been thinking about launching a book club focused entirely on BIOGRAPHIES. This coincides with a change in direction for @GetLexApp, the app I've been building and it will also mark my return to YouTube. Got a vid planned that will get into all the details.

Which biography should we start with? Here are four I've been wanting to read for a while.

They’re calling me the Bookmogger.

@joce_leigh @MemoryMedieval It’s up!

Did you know that Lex Premium users can generate one free audiobook per month?

Probably not, considering I just shipped this feature an hour ago.

Let me know if you like the 8 default voices…and stick around the till the end for a surprise.

[Lex @GetLexApp]

I’d recommend this nice, light read.

[Goodreads @goodreads]

Which book would you recommend to someone who's just getting back into reading?

[Lex @GetLexApp]

Ryan Gosling is great and all, but this is what I actually pictured Ryland Grace from Project Hail Mary sounding like.

Anyone read The Worm Ouroboros?

The Worm Ouroboros (1922) is a classic high fantasy epic written in lush, archaic prose. It follows the heroic Lords of Demonland battling the sorcerous King of Witchland, ending in a cyclical reset that ensures their eternal struggle continues.
