Finished Tripwire by Lee Child, third book in the Jack Reacher series.
Ending was expected, but I guess if you have such a long running series, pretty much ending will always be expected. Bad guy meets Reacher, bad guy loses, Reacher wins. Fun to read though, which is the main point. Going to keep reading them.
Don’t think it ticked any of the Bingo boxes though.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I finished Trust by Hernan Diaz, which I absolutely loved (the quickest I’ve ever read a novel according to my StoryGraph). Hernan Diaz might be my new favorite author, and I added his first novel, In The Distance, to my TBR.
I’m currently reading Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism by Sarah Wynn-Williams.
Just finished Trust based on this comment advice. I read it without looking up at summaries or so before and at first I was a bit disappointed by the first part (and even asked myself if it would not be a dnf). But when I discovered there was 4 parts in this book, progressively revealing the facts, I told myself “what a great piece of literature it is”. This is just a real performance for the author to write in 4 different style as if the part were written by different people with the key markers of each type of writing. Thanks for this advice, my first reading during my vacation and it was a real piece of artwork.
My thoughts exactly! I’m happy you enjoyed it too😀
Oh, I just finished Careless People - a very good read that gives a lot of insight (and cemented my decision to cut out Facebook), and one that has gotten me back into reading non-fiction. I hope you’re finding it compelling!
I just read the post-pregnancy, South Korea chapter, and wow! It’s stunning how openly soulless tech execs can be to even their own employees.
