Had a busy week, so couldn't get much reading done. So still at pretty much the same place in Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series).

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

Finished reading Dennis E Taylor's Bobiverse series for the second time, waiting on the new book to be published. For now it's audiobook only, and I like reading it myself. Just started reading Martha Wells' "Platform Decay", Murderbot being one of the other series I found last year that I really liked.

If you haven’t already, check out Dungeon Crawler Carl. There is a lot of overlap in fandoms. 🙂

Thanks, I have, the latest book is already on the to read list. Along with the latest book in "the laundry files", which I can also recommend.

I'm also reading Murder Bot, on book 3, and Audible recommended We Are Bob. I suppose you're enjoying it?

Both are great series. We are Bob is less action packed though.
