I wanted to post this for two reasons, one being to try to drive this community’s engagement up a little, and the other to grow my collection of books on the topic.

As much as I’d love to see this community as active as its Reddit counterpart, I would also like if it wasn’t as hostile as r/UFOs. So far on Lemmy, it’s been great to see that for the most part we are not all at each other’s throats.

Let’s talk about some books, y’all. What should I be reading?

    In Plain Sight by Ross Coulthart is a must read on the history of not just the phenomenon, but how various governments around the world have worked to keep it secret, despite leaking like a sieve.

    If you’ve got Spotify premium, it’s free on there and read by the man himself. It’s also got the new chapters that the updated version comes with.

    I have a hard time seeing many people reading it and not thinking something is going on, even without naming it as aLiEnS.

      Damn dude, there is an absolute treasure trove in here. I didn’t even know there were audiobooks at all.

      Thank you so much for this. For real.

      Edit: Diana Pasulka’s two books are in here too

      I love hearing that man talk. Thank you for the recommendation. I have it on my kindle but found out I really like reading on paper quite a bit more. Had no idea it was an audiobook already and that it’s on Spotify. Will absolutely be checking this out in the car omw to work throughout this week.
