Finished Cold Days by Jim Butcher! (The 14th book in Dresden Files series.)

It was a wild ride! We are back to world shattering problems and trying to stop them. Just finished the book so haven't finalised which one to start next, but thinking about reading the next Mistborn book, 3rd one in Wax and Wayne era. Let's see.

Bingo Squares: None.

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

They are a pretty fun urban fantasy. Protagonist is a wizard that works as a "wizard for hire" like a private investigator, but as the story progresses the stakes keep getting bigger and bigger. Highly recommended, though beware that first 2 or so books are probably the weakest, though I enjoyed those too.
