Reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series). About halfway through the book, things are getting interesting, mainly because we are learning more of the world and how it works, still no solution to actual problem though, but I doubt we will get it before the end.

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

I'm reading "The Fort Bragg Cartel" by Seth Harp. It's about Delta Force and all the hidden criminal activity that goes on at the highest levels of the military. These guys are the most elite soldiers on Earth and they are constantly raping, murdering, boozing, doing drugs and selling drugs. And how the state spends a lot of money covering up their crimes. Also they're all racist and sexist.

It's a great book. Very well researched. Seth Harp is a former military turned investigative journalist. So he's the exact right person to write the book and he did a fantastic job.
