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?

This would honestly make a perfect road trip Playlist.

After the first 20 minutes or so of music, I just want to listen to something calm. Then just keep it going during activities that don't require hearing or talking. My favorite headphones actually have a "sport mode" that instead of using the external mics for noise canceling, they just pipe it through, so my listening doesn't bother anyone else, but I can still clearly hear people walking around me.

Listening to the secret council meeting in Fellowship while chilling in a hammock at the park was great.
