Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it's just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

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

2001 A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke: I'm about 70% of the way in and it's pretty good. I really enjoy reading early/pre-space age stories because the ideas about what would and wouldn't work in space are so fascinating. The way he talks about moon life, interstellar travel times/methods, and more show so much creativity. It's also interesting to see the difference between movie HAL9000 and book HAL9000. I'm excited to watch the movie again after I'm done
