Pentium100 1,915 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I recently finished "Chernobyl. How it happened?" by A. Dyatlov. It was really interesting, with quite a few points that other sources and the TV show did not show or showed differently. For example, he says in the book that there was no minimum limit on the reactor power, so running it at 200MW was in line with the rules. After the explosion, the rules were updated to include a lower limit of 700MW and the operators were accused of not following the rule that was not there at the time. I read the book in English (as I do not really understand Russian) and it seemed like the translation was done with Google Translate, but I like his style of writing.

Dabmanz 2,100 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) I have not started it yet but I am going to read the book Bearing an Hourglass by Piers Anthony due to the fact it is the first form of media that uses the word alicorn to describe a horse with both wings and a horn. It is for this reason I am curious. Edited February 24, 2020 by Dabmanz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoloft 114 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 i am reading "the loiterer" (aylak adam) at the moment and it is honestly great! after finishing it i'm thinking about going into some stuff of shakespeare cause his pieces are always fun to read and quick, it's good to read them while you're on an exam week and trying to relax your mind.

Well actually in the Pottermore website, they're running this special event where actors/actress from HP/FB will be reading each new chapter every week to us! Something to look forward to during my self-quarantine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
