What book(s) are you currently reading or listening? 01 December
I was supposed to post this last week, but got delayed because of Thanksgiving. Hope you all had a fun time.
I finished The House at Sea’s End by Elly Griffiths. It was an okay read, not bad, but thinking about getting into another crime series with more action / mystery and less relationship stuff. But I have got the next 5-6 books so will read them.
Read the next Dresden Files novel, Blood Rites by Jim Butcher. I feel the quality of writing has improved a lot since the first couple of novels. This one felt a bit less intense than the last one, but liked the character developments.
Read Jujitsu Kaisen, Vol 4, not much to say about it. More action, more silliness.
Currently reading The Black Company by Glen Cook. I have the omnibus (Chronicles of the Black Company) which has first three books, so may end up reading all three as one book. The writing style is a bit weird, but I think I have gotten used to it.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening? Or have read and listened in last 2-3 weeks?
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm reading Hard Reset by Django Wexler on Audible. It's a small little guilty pleasure sci-fi about a pilot and an archeologist repairing a warbot on a post-apocalyptic earth. The performance is very good. After I'm done with that I'm gonna read Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris. I always like to theme a book around the holidays.
On Kindle, I'm reading How To by Randal Monroe. I'm not sure about it currently, I'm bouncing off some of the humor, even though I love XKCD. I'm also reading Dragons of Crumbling castle to my son who is 3 months old. I'm almost done, so after that, maybe the Hobbit? My wife is reading him Roald Dahl's The Witches. When I'm done with How To, I'm moving onto Carpe Jugulum in my second reading through of Discworld.
Then, on MoonReader I've got a PDF of Dan Abnett's Legion from an old Humble Bundle. I don't know about it, I think he put in too much jargon. Usually I love his writing, ever since I read his run on Guardians of the Galaxy, and I'm a Chaos Space Marine fan. Hell, I also love conmen and tricksters, so the Alpha Legion book for the Horus Heresy should be right up my alley, but I'm getting lost in the weeds with it. When I'm done with this one, I'll move onto the next book in the Horus Heresy novels. I should have it since I alway get the Warhammer Humble Bundles.
Have you read Django Wexler's Shadow Campaign series? I really enjoyed them and the audiobooks are very good
No, but I'll look into them!
Humble book bundles are great, but I am always torn between wanting physical books vs getting so many books for such a price.
I'm a suckered for library building, and digital helps keep my footprint down, though I do love the feel of a book
I understand that. I have switched to digital for all other media, but for books I enjoy them a lot more with physical ones. So, still sticking with them.
I mean, Dresden would have to stick to paper books anyway, so that works.
