Finished Chloe Marr by A. A. Milne. I liked the book, but it's very much product of it's time, the way men and women act. Also, if you can get the literary and pop-culture (of that time) references, you'll enjoy it a lot more. As it is, even though I enjoyed reading it, when I wasn't reading it, I didn't feel too much like picking it up.
Read Jujitsu Kaisen Vol. 3. Continuing my 1 volume per month for JJK. Same as The Dresden Files. Don't want to finish all the published work and wait for new ones. So, once a month will keep me supplied for quite a while.
Read Meet the Maliks - Twin Detectives: The Cookie Culprit by Zanib Mian. Got it for my kid, felt a little bit like Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but more about muslim family and kids. Read it to see how it is, and I enjoyed it. It's first in the series though, the author has also written Planet Omar series, may try those for kid next.
Starting Death Masks by Jim Butcher.
What about all of you? What have all of you been reading and listening?
What do you think of the books written by Brian? I just finished God emperor a couple of weeks ago.
Love 'em! I’ve read more by Brian and Kevin than by Frank at this point. And I definitely think the Brian/Kevin books all live up to Frank’s.
I will say Frank is an expert at creating mystery and making the reader want to know and understand more about such-and-such culture or technology. And Brian’s/Kevin’s books do less creating mystery and more resolving it.
Without giving too many spoilers, with Brian’s/Kevin’s books, if you’ve read Frank’s already, you’re constantly going “oh wow, I didn’t realize I was wondering about that all along until just now.” And you get a lot more of a look into places Frank’s books don’t touch.
