Didn't really grab me. Maybe because it takes place in the time between "A New Hope" and "The Empire Strikes Back", so the stakes never seem high. Was hoping for better, as a huge fan of "The Expanse", but it was mildly entertaining to read for a few days. I feel like they really nailed Han's character, though, I could very much see and hear him saying and doing stuff and believe it.
Accelerate: Building and Scaling High Performing Technology Organizations
Jez Humble, Gene Kim, Nicole Forsgren
An excellent book on how DevOps makes organizations perform better overall. Much of it makes good intuitive sense, but the scientific research really helps to bolster the case. Essential reading for anyone in information technology.
Fantastic, unflinching, and fair. Does a terrific job demonstrating Jobs’s growth as an entrepreneur, a manager, and a person. He comes across as a flawed, yet deeply inspiring person. Perfect title. Highly recommended.
Read through the fun [Dracula Daily](https://draculadaily.substack.com). I had no idea it was essentially a romance novel. A Gothic romance novel. Also striking to me that such a simple story has inspired so many derivitives over the last 100 years. I enjoyed it.
