I finished both Julia by Sandra Newman and 1984 by George Orwell. I liked 1984 better, much more depth and great writing, but Julia was good too.
I've now started Solaris by Stanislaw Lem. I like it so far, but I feel it could have had a bit more depth to it. Still an interesting story so far.
The Crucible - historical fiction by John Sayles.

I'm loving this book because it gives a little bit of Harry Potter vibes. As always, Le Guin's prose is fantastic. This might as well become one of my favorite novels.
I've largely been rereading older releases for comfort, since I keep bouncing off the new (to me) books I've started--and the end of this bingo year is approaching!
I just started Carl’s Doomsday Scenario! Book 2 of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series which seems to be extremely popular given all the comments in this thread about the book series!
It is light hearted and fun which I think is needed.
I'm currently reading "Introduction to the Critique of Political Economy" (in spanish: "Introducción a la crítica de la economía política"). It's a summary of Marx's "Capital" from the perspective of its author, Simon Clarke. It's very interesting.
