Think of this thread as a mid year review:

How many have you read and are you on track?

Favorite reads of the year so far?

Least favorite reads of the year?

Any new releases you are looking forward to?

Nice! Dune is a bit of a beast. I reread it last year, and read the sequel, Dune Messiah this year. I can't say I loved DM (not as much as Dune anyways), it felt like a book that existed entirely to set up the next book? I'll probably keep reading the series but I'm definitely taking a bit of a break.

Did you watch the movie first? My wife found that the movie really helped her connect all the weird names and characters together without getting overwhelmed.
