Started Whispers Underground by Ben Aaronovitch. Book 3 of Rivers of London series.

Just started it, not much to say about it yet.

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

A few more Deathlands for me, up to 111 now.

I started the third Thursday Next book and got about 3 hours or so into it but I just couldnt really carry on. I enjoy the world and the concepts behind what is happening but the story itself behind that is just fucking dull. I might go back and try to get a bit further but as of right now I don't have the motivation as I just don't care about what might happen.

Instead I started A Sunlit Man as I said I would. I have just got past the point where Wit has showed up again and I am super excited to "see" him again as I always enjoyed him in the other cosmere novels so I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. It is also nice to hear places like Roshar mentioned again as it has been a while since I heard those names :D

Did you finish it, Dresden? How did you find what you read?
