Caught up to side stories in Side Jobs by Jim Butcher. It's a short stories collection in Dresden Files universe. Only 1 short story and 1 novella remaining in the book. Short story is after next the book and the novella is after the book after that.
Now reading The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King. I have this book in my library for over 15 years. Bought it a long time ago just by looking at King's name, but then assumed it must be a part of a series (at that time all fantasy I had read were part of series), so left it for later and then forgot. Someone mentioned the book somewhat recently, and I looked it up again and found out it's a standalone book, so finally reading it now.
It's written in very different style from King's usual work, like a tale told orally. It's also a medieval fantasy, with kings, magic and dragons. Also, not as long, less than 400 pages. I am about halfway done, and enjoying the book. Should finish it soon-ish.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?
There's a Midyear Bingo check-in post, do take a look. Even if you haven't started this year's Book Bingo, you can still join, as there are still 6 months remaining!
For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it's Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.
I have so many damn books and I wish I were so fast that I could read a book a day. It's so frustrating. I have a bunch of nonfiction I want to read, but I love novels, too. I'm currently reading King's "Pet sematary"
Same! I wish I could keep up with the growth rate of my TBR pile.
Hehe, I think that's a problem many people here face. I am reading more than one book a month, that is pretty good with my schedule, but I am still buying more than I am reading, and adding more to my wishlist than I am buying, so probably not going to catch up in this lifetime.
I have started to look at it from the other side, I am not going to run out of the books and am always going to have something to read!
Good way to look at it. I have 450 books waiting for me to read.
At least 450 more books to enjoy! It's a good life!
100%. Thank you for helping me change my perspective 🙏🏽
