Reading When Moon Hits the Eye by John Scalzi.

I am still in the start, but the premise is hilarious. Looking forward to how everything unfolds.

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

Audio book: the new dungeon crawler Carl book

Paper book: on my 3rd attempt of House of Leaves. This is not an adhd friendly book

Finished the 4th book of the Children Of Time series, but I think I will have to relisten to it at don't point. My mind wandered too much in some parts

House of Leaves, I gave it a go back when I was 17, and there's parts that are gripping, but most is ... I dunno, maybe felt like he was trying way too hard. But it certainly is quite the story and quite the book, physically. Do you have a physical copy or ereader? I'm curious to see how it's presented in a digital format.

A hardcover physical version

Can't imagine a digital version working too well, as the page layout is so important to the book
