Still reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy, so no change there.

It has become quite interesting though (or maybe it's just the Stockholm syndrome talking), I am in last 1/3 or maybe 1/4th of the book, and things have started to get together, though I still don't know what's the goal in this book. From all I have read, this seems to just be a 'middle' book whose purpose is to explore the world and take us from book 1 to book 3 where everything will be concluded.

Let's see how I feel by the time I finish it.

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

I finished Infinite. It was decent but not amazing, not something I would go out of my way to recommend but also if the blurb takes your fancy I'd still say give it a try.

After that I've gone right back to Deathlands. Halfway through 19 now :)

Yeh, I just can't stay away for some reason. I'd planned to fit them in between other books, not buen through 5 at a time xD. I have the next book after Infinite ready for when I can force a break xD
