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 loved the first third of Neuromancer. The rest largely felt like it failed to deliver, and a bit like it went off the rails. Count Zero was a bit better in execution.

That's about where I started to lose interest, too. So much of the interesting world-building is in that first part, before it decides to turn into a heist novel.
