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?
Been listening to Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky and so far it’s fantastic. I’ve been asking my GPT4 for recommendations that might match a certain set of criteria. It recommended this one as something vaguely similar to the Bobiverse series be Dennis E Taylor, which I really like.
One of my favorite, second is different but also good and the third of the series just came out afaik.
I’m reading Children of Time now. It is very good. And today I was reading some news about how scientists are trying to translate spider language. Check this out: https://www.sciencealert.com/scientists-translated-spiderwebs-into-music-and-its-absoutely-stunning
