Back to reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series). Only read couple of pages, but things are setting down so should be getting back to reading more.

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

Southern Man by Greg Iles, a late addendum to the Penn Cage series.

It's risky to infer an author's political leanings from their fiction, but there are exceptions. This was written and set in the 2024 election season, and is bluntly critical of Donald Trump and his MAGA supporters. No, I don't think Iles got invited to Trump's inauguration party.
