Which book are you on? I loved the series, but its a heavy read. Have to read the rest of the series in the Realm of Enderlings though.

Still reading Your Money Or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin. There are some interesting points in it, though not implementing anything right now, just reading the book.
Finished volume 7 of Jujitsu Kaisen manga, by Gege Akutami.
Started The Passage by Justin Cronin. Saw it recommended here a few times, and ordered the trilogy, books are so much longer than I expected. Each book can probably be divided in 2 and still be on slightly thicker end of average book size. I am still at the start, only 60-70 pages yet. Getting a slight feel of Stephen King books. Let's see how it progresses.

lol, yeah, I didn't even remember the name 😀
I pretty much read all my H. G. Wells in my very young days, and haven't gone back to them after that. May pick it up again to see how I feel about it now.
Without giving any spoilers, did that character got his well deserved comeuppance? 😀
The Time Traveler by H. G. Wells? I remember reading it a long long time ago and liking it, though don't remember most of it now.
Have heard good things about the series. Glad you are enjoying it!
I used to read lots of Koontz, but haven't read him in a long time.
Deathlands looks interesting, but I don't think I'll be able to get them all physically, may have to go the ebook route for them.
Thanks for the recommendations, will check them out.

Good to know. I already got the next few books, so would be pretty sad if got worse. 😀
Ahan, thanks for the info, will check it out.
Is the series finished, or is he planning more books?
Looks interesting. Would wait for your review of whole series before taking a dive 😀

Finished Killing Floor by Lee Child, first Jack Reacher novel. I really liked it. I had been looking forward to starting the series, so ordered first 3 books, but when I got the books they were pretty thick, and I wasn't sure if an action / thriller novel will keep me interested for so long, but I enjoyed it. Going to order a few more novels in the series.
Read Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch, first novel in Rivers of London series. It's an urban fantasy police procedural set in London. I was expecting something like Dresden Files, but it was pretty different, not in a bad way though.
Currently Reading Your Money Or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin. Started it in January but hardly read a few pages, started it again today and just finished the first chapter. Unlike some of the other "money" books I have read, this seems to have focus on getting away from consumerism, and figuring out when you have "enough". I have been thinking along the same wavelength these past few years, so it would be interesting to see how it takes it further.

Verse novels sound cool. How are you liking it so far?
Looking forward to your review of Barons: Money, Power, and the Corruption of America’s Food Industry by Austin Frerick
Never heard of her before, any recommendations, where to start?
That sounds amazing. Thanks for the recommendation!
Nice. Glad that you are enjoying it.
It also has some sequels that are pretty good, though I haven't read any of those yet.
Haven't read either of them, both look interesting. Though Quantum Thief seems more up my alley.
Well, I haven't read either of them. Will start with Agatha Christie then. 😀

Finished Defiant by Brandon Sanderon, fourth and final book of the Cytoverse series. Really enjoyed it. Recommended to all sci-fi fans. Though do keep it in mind that it is a bit YA-ish, so if you aren't a fan of that, you may not love it.
After that, read couple of books I got for the kid. Mainly read them to stay in the loop of what he is reading and how he is liking it. Also, it's fun to discuss books with him.
First was, the first book in The Breakfast Club Adventures, The Beast Beyond the Fence by Marcus Rashford (The footballer) and Alex Falase-Koya. The protagonist of the series is also named Marcus Rashford, so I am assuming it's named after him.
Second was Accidental Trouble Magnet by Zanib Mian, first book in Planet Omar series. We are reading her newer series Meet the Maliks and liked that, so started her previous series too.
Currently reading Killing Floor by Lee Child, first book in Jack Reacher series. Before that my only Reacher knowledge is from Tom Cruise movies, so enjoying the book now.

I was pretty busy last week, so couldn't post the weekly thread. Sorry about that.
Since the last update, I finished Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson, book 3 of the sci-fi series Cytoverse. After that, I continued with the last novella Evershore by Brandon and Janci Patterson. Now reading Defiant, the fourth and the final book in the series.
Also reading Design Patterns, a classic book for software design. While I have read about these online and studied from other sources, I never actually read the actual book. So fixing that now.

A day late, but better late than never!
Finished Proven Guilty by Jim Butcher. Book 8 of Dresden Files. Loving how the series is progressing. How the characters are growing, and how the stakes keep getting higher and higher.
Currently Reading Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson. Book 3 of Cytoverse / Skyward series. It continues from after Book 2, and we haven't come across the events of the novellas yet. I am interested to see how they will cover those.

Finished Sunreach by Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson. It's first of three novellas written between book 2 and 3 of Cytoverse series.
Finished ReDawn, the next novella after Sunreach, by same authors.
Before reading these novellas, I considered them side stories, which may help expand the universe and give background info about other characters, but nothing big in main scheme of things, but the way story has progressed in these, anyone who miss these will missing out on a lot.
Of course, I have yet to read the next novel, so maybe it will cover some of the important bits, let's see.
After the novellas, I have started Proven Guilty by Jim Butcher, book 8 of Dresden Files. These novels keep getting longer, if I recall correctly, the first few were around 300 or so pages, this one is over 550 pages. Not that I am complaining, they are a fun read, but just an observation.

Finished Three Days to Never by Tim Powers. First half was pretty dense and slow, but second half, when things were getting obvious, and plans finally getting into motion, were very interesting, and was able to read them in just a few days.
It meets criteria for at least 3 different Bingo boxes, not sure where to place it. Would decide it later. ( @[email protected] We can do that right? Move them around different boxes after reading more books?)
Now I have just started Sunreach by Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson. It's first of three novellas, which are between book 2 and 3. (Well, third novella is generally recommended to be read after book 3, but that's a separate topic). It's a small book, so hopefully will be able to finish it soon.

Finished Starsight by Brandon Sanderson. Second book in Cytoverse series. Loved the way the series progressed, though didn't liked the post-ending much. Going to start the novella soon.
Started Three Days to Never by Tim Powers. It's a standalone sci-fi. Don't remember who recommended Tim Powers or when, but he was mentioned in my list, so got couple of his books. I have just started the book, something is happening, but I am not sure what, so no idea what to think about it yet. Let's see how it turns out.
