Finished The Passage by Justin Cronin. First book in The Passage trilogy. Overall, liked the book. The start was slow, giving me Stephen King vibes, but it picked up the pace as it went along. It was too long though, and can't get myself to start next one right away.
Read couple of son's books to change pace. The Ghoul in the School by Marcus Rashford and Alex Falase-Koya, the second book in The Breakfast Club Adventures. And Unexpected Super Spy by Zanib Mian, second book in Planet Omar series.
Also read, and just finished 5 mins before this post, Yumi and the Nightmare Painter by Brandon Sanderson, book 3 of his secret projects, and part of Cosmere, but a standalone book, which can be read without any knowledge of his other work. I loved this book. Like most of his "secret projects" books, couldn't put it down once I picked it up.
Currently Reading... nothing. Just finished the previous book and haven't decided what to start next... leaning towards next Dresden Files novel though... let's see.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

That I'll do. It's kind of frustrated, I do love the premises and love the first part. But for some reason the new characters just simply doesn't click with me. I am now in "The Haven", something is not right here, it might get interesting.
I felt like that in the first few chapters after the time jump, but then got used to these characters. Hope you atleast enjoy the ending!
Oh, I got used to the characters, I just doesn't find them interesting.

The fact that "The Haven" is making deals with the smokes is not surprising, in fact I guessed it the moment it bought up how the fact the idea of “The Haven" is a impossibility. Of course, this is might only because the books has been out for over a decade and the same idea has been used over and over.Heh.
As for the spoilery part, I guessed that too. But at this point in the book, you have to know that something's up.
Are you going to continue the series?
Continuing the series, most not likely.
