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 ๐Ÿ˜€

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

Do let me know for all the "must reads" that you come across. I'll probably never read all the Star Trek books but I can read some of the best ones.

I actually did a post a while back asking for recommendations since, yeah, there's a lot of them and I really only have time for the "must reads".

So far, I've read two and 2/3 (one single, one trilogy, and 2/3 of another trilogy). I can recommend them all as "must reads" (unless Millennium falls apart in the 3rd book; just started it last night).

  • A Stitch in Time
  • ST: Destiny
  • DS9: Millennium

Probably next up is the first in the "Titan" series (as recommended by someone in that post). I only bought the first one in that series. If it's good, I'll buy the rest of them.
