Reading Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire (first book in her October Daye urban fantasy series). About halfway through the book, things are getting interesting, mainly because we are learning more of the world and how it works, still no solution to actual problem though, but I doubt we will get it before the end.

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

Today I’m finishing up Chaos Vector by Megan E. O’Keefe. 2 books in and I really like it. Lots of space opera fun. I’m excited to see where it’s going to go in the third book. There was a pretty big reveal in the middle of this book and it’s keeping me hooked.

After I finish, I’m going to read Diary of a Wimpy Kid. 17, Diper Överlöde since my hold became available from the library. I don’t want to keep some kid waiting, so I’ll get that one done quick. I’ve been reading these since they seem popular with kids and I was curious what kids read these days. When I was a kid it was all about Goosebumps, Animorphs, and His Dark Materials for me.

I will definitely take recommendations on recent scifi stuff kids read if anyone has any.
