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?

    Just finished: The Perks of Being a Wallflower. First time read for me, it was great! I really wish I’d read it as a teen.

    Finishing up: 1984. I read it ~15 years ago, can’t believe how much I forgot.

    Up next: Starship Troopers. It’s a book I own but haven’t read. I love the movie and typically hate reading a book I’ve already watched the movie version of, however I hear it’s worth the read and am curious how it’s written.

      Starship Troopers ended up a very different experience in the book, so I think you won’t feel as though you’re retreading too much.

        Thank you for the insight! I’m hoping different will be a good thing, as most others seem to have liked the movie more.
