Started next book in the Dresden Files series, Ghost Story by Jim Butcher. This is book 13, and is pretty unique so far. The previous book “Changes” has changed quite a bit, and now we are living those changes.

Can’t put it down, want to see how it develops!

My previous book, Streams of Silver covers 2 bingo squares: Title: [X] of [Y] and Off your TBR pile (hard mode).

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

    Why didn’t you like Old Man’s War, and do you like Scalzi’s other work?

    You copied my bingo square “x of y”!

      This is gonna sound dumb, but it was too much war for me. I imagine the battle after battle after battle + blur of faceless soldiers was the point, but I needed either a more interesting plot or more character work for it to hold my attention. I haven’t read any other Scalzi, but I liked the narrative voice well enough in Old Man’s War to be down to try something else by him at some point.
