Started the next book in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series, Cold Days

Since it's the 14th book in the series, I can't say much about it without spoiling what happened in the previous books, but things have become very interesting. Though, the more the things change, the more they stay the same, Harry is still out of his depth, and stakes are still sky high.

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

Just One Damned Thing After Another by Jodi Taylor. It's the first book in a series about time traveling historians. So far it seems fun! The protagonist is witty and sarcastic, which I look for in a protagonist. I'm also in the middle of reading Galaxy Outlaws: The Complete Black Oceans Mobius Missions by J. S. Morin. I spent 1 audible credit figuring if I liked it, it would be an incredible value. It was presented as similar as Firefly and Guardians of the Galaxy, so I was down! The books are actually rather surprising as the plots progress further than I would have thought. I figured it would be more episodic, with characters slowly developing over the series, but the crew's circumstances being fairly stable, but it is not like that at all! The character development is a little slower than I expected, and the plot progression much faster! I'm up to book 9, but so I don't become burnt out by it I alternate between reading 1 black ocean book, and 1 other book.
