Click on the picture icon (fourth from the right), and copy the url of the picture you share. Paste into that command:
So it will look like this:
I inserted a couple of spaces so that it would look sort of what you should see.
Result? This:

thanks George. I thought I did just that.

George - not quite as well done as Why We Sleep, I would still recommend this one as well. Wish we were about 20 years younger.

Loved, just loved "Why We Sleep." It's amazing how the thinking about sleep has changed since I was in school.
Anyhow, up next - more popcorn:

Yeah. Popcorn indeed. And just as satisfying.
Has all the marks of a really good thriller - confusing crime, missing person, lots of misdirection.
But, popcorn ain't a good meal. The ending was rushed, confusing, and though satisfying, like popcorn, wasn't really fulfilling. 3/5 stars.
Up next, based on Kluurs recommendation:
Looking forward to it.

Finished this. Really good book! Very interesting.

Reading The 12 Rules of Life (while practicing social distancing in a BKK coffee shop! 555)
Interesting book, but it has not yet "grabbed" me.
From Wikipedia
"The book advances the idea that people are born with the instinct for ethics and meaning and should take responsibility to search for meaning above their own interests (chapter eight, rule seven, "Pursue what is meaningful, not what is expedient"). Such thinking is reflected in contemporary stories such as Pinocchio, The Lion King, and Harry Potter and in ancient stories from the Bible.[4] To "Stand up straight with your shoulders back" (title of first chapter) is to "accept the terrible responsibility of life", to make self-sacrifice,[10] because the individual must rise above victimization and "conduct his or her life in a manner that requires the rejection of immediate gratification, of natural and perverse desires alike".[9] The comparison to neurological structures and behavior of lobsters is used as a natural example to the formation of social hierarchies.[6"

Not much of a "grippy" book, but I should mention that each chapter deals with very different subject matter. Some are pretty damn dark. The first one's the weirdest and in my opinion the worst choice for an opener.

@Aqua-Letifer Thanks Aqua. I have just started, so will remember your thoughts as I move through the book!

You reading it in Thai? Or is that book in English too?
Both. I am trying to learn better Thai, but I am too lazy and just read the English side. LOL
