Started Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire. First book in her October Daye urban fantasy series. This is my first Seanan McGuire book, have heard a lot about her.

Still skimming through The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Caroll.

Putting Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken on hold for a bit, shouldn't have started multiple non-fiction at once. Will pick it up after finishing the Bullet Journal Method.

Caliban's War . I've seen The Expanse TV series. This is my first time reading the books.

I'm on book 3 and enjoying it. I had started episode one of the show, stopped, forgot about it, and then decided to read it all, and eventually go back to the show.

The show was really good, you should give it another chance. I was watching Wrecking Crew on Netflix last night. Frankie Adams was in that movie, and she was so perfectly cast in The Expanse that she will always be Bobbie Draper to me. I don't see the actors who played Naomi or Amos when I read the books, but Frankie Adams will always be Bobbie Draper in my head.

So I didn't know who Frankie Adams was, and I looked her up and spot on.

And so yeah, I want to read the whole series before I watch the show, so I can watch the show and criticize it, you know?

And Amos I imagine being the redhead dude from The Walking Dead, Abraham. And I know that's not how he looks, but I can't get it out of my head.

That series is the one series I wish I could read all over for the first time again. I hope you enjoy the ride!

Thanks! I've got my Kobo in dark mode and I've been reading a chapter or two every night in bed before retiring. I'm enjoying it so far.
