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

Though, technically I hadn't read anything last two weeks to it's more of "got back to reading".

It's still book 3, but I found it interesting how different it is from Dresden Files. There is no forces of nature with personal enmity with the protagonist (yet), it's just (magic) crimes being solved by (magic) police. More of a police procedural then whatever genre Dresden Files is 😀

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

I just finished Fahrenheit 451. It was pretty decent but the ending was kind of a letdown.

Now… I’m searching for a new book and don’t know what to read.

The ending is kinda not amazing but it's the rest of the book that's worth so much. He was so spot on on so many things.

Now… I’m searching for a new book and don’t know what to read.

Also from Bradbury, have you read his Martian Chronicles? My favorite between the two ;)
