Finished Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch. Book 2 of Rivers of London series. Our PC is getting better with the magic, and yet is still very new to this. We get a peek at the bigger magic world. Would be interesting to see how it develops further.

Reading Artemis by Andy Weir. Have read his other books and loved them, but this is supposedly different then his other work. Let's see.

Also, I think I should start working on Book Bingo, if I wait till the end of Bingo year, I would've forgotten half of what I have read. If any of you are working your Book Bingo, how far have you reached?

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?


A regular reminder about our Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.

Recently finished 1Q84. Thought it was an excellent book. A few flaws here and there, but overall a great read, and worth it for such a long book. Then I make the mistake of looking on YouTube and almost everyone is trashing it (going off the click bait titles). I did not watch any of those stupid videos.

Am currently on book 2 of the Evan Tanner series. A complete change of pace from 1Q84. The plots are absurd, but it's an easy read. Guilty pleasure. I prefer Block's later stuff, but he said this series was his most original.
