Our Bingo for 2026 is Live! You can check Official Bingo Challenge Post and the accompanying Recommendations Post.

Big thanks to @JaymesRS@literature.cafe and @misericordiae@literature.cafe for all the work they do to arrange these!

As for books, reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series). Didn't get much time, but slowly making progress.

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

With reference to Will Destroy The Galaxy For Cash, all of Yahtzee Croshaw’s books are excellent.

Have you read any of his non Jacques McKeown books? Jam is particularly weird, you’d love it.

Incidentally, I literally just finished the last Jacques McKeown book, Will Leave The Galaxy For Good, yesterday.

It’s a very nice end to the trilogy and based on the subject matter, very prescient for these days.

I have, I like Mogworld so I'll have to add Jam to the list

I was excited for good was finally available as an ebook because I don't really like audio books but it looks like I'll have to borrow a friend's kindle to read it because I can't figure out how to load it onto my kobo

It's good to know he keeps the quality up!
