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?

Oryx and Crake, entertaining so far.

Just read this for the first time a couple months ago, immediately followed by the sequel Year of the Flood. Haven't gotten round to finishing the trilogy yet. I'm interested in your thoughts once you finish!

I just finished the third book. I think it is very well written. It ties the different storylines together in a way that I did not see coming. 4,5 stars

I'll let you know. I have the trilogy and plan to read it whole.

This entire trilogy is such a mind fuck, but entirely worth reading, imo

I'm looking forward to it!
