Still reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Enjoying it enough to not give up, but not enjoying it enough it enough to read it quickly, so it's going slowly. Going to try to speed up and finish it quickly.

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

I liked the premise/vibe of Neuromancer a lot more than the actual narrative. Some of the dialogue was just painful.

Absolutely agreed. The narrative makes choices in a few places, and some of the second half seems kind of muddled.

But the shuriken stars are like the stars under which he voyaged! So deep.
