Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it's just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Finished The Rise of Endymion, finally. It seemed like it would be a good 400-500 page book but instead was a 800+ page slog. I really enjoyed the first two books in the Hyperion cantos but the last two were rough.

Currently finishing rereading Levithan Wakes and just started Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas, which is obviously incredibly depressing.
