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. ( @JaymesRS@literature.cafe 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.

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

We will be unfeaturing those posts now, so they won’t be sticky on the top anymore. They will be mentioned in each weekly thread though, and you can also check them in community sidebar.

    I’m reading the 3rd Malazan book at the moment. At least I was, until my library loan was due and somebody else borrowed it. I was stuck with the English version (I mainly read in German) and had to learn all the character names anew. Some are easy to translate (Silverfox is Silberfuchs), however Whiskeyjack gave me a hard time (He’s called Elster in German).

    But now I got my beloved German version back, so I guess my brain has to adapt again.
