Still reading Cold Days by Jim Butcher, the 14th book in Dresden Files series.

Had a busy week so couldn't get much reading done, about halfway through though.

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

Finished Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier yesterday. It was a good gothic novel about how a person can still haunt the lives of others, even strangers, after they pass.

Last night I started Cory Doctorow’s book Enshittification. I didn’t get far, but after reading his blog a lot a year ago it mostly feels like a summary of stuff he normally writes about so far. That’s about what I hoped for. I’m interested to see what more he has to add later.

Rebecca was a great read. Recently read a good essay about Du Maurier and her concise turn of phrase and it just made me want to read more of her books.
