Re-reading:
Edward Maisel's seminal book Tai Chi for Health. This one was first published in the mid-1960's, and I picked up my first copy around 1970, when it was still pretty much the only book in English on the subject. Yang style.
Plus the local daily newspaper; The New Yorker, (weekly); The Fretboard Journal, and Guitar World Acoustic.

Do you recommend The Ranger?
I liked it. His character is not quite as bulletproof as Child's Reacher, but there is something of that flavor there. And the setting is dead-on.
In fact, I would offer that all of these on the list are readable -- pretty much these days, if I don't like a book, I put it down, so if I read it all the way through, it had something that held me to the end.
