I haven't seen a thread for this before so I am opening it up to see what folks are reading.

 

My last book was The Devotion of Suspect X

Last book? Well I read the first thee Stainless Steel Rat books on the London Underground travelling to/from work. Books on a phone, not quite the same as curling up in a chair with paper.

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. It was okay, kinda heavy on the wish fulfillment for nerd boys. I loved the references and I felt it was fun to read a video game/VR story where it seemed like an actual game and didn't substitute generic fictional equivalents for real world pop culture and games. (A similar appeal to Snow Crash) The last bit of it was rushed and I felt some characters were underdeveloped. Supposedly a movie is being made of it.

Classic Star Wars book!

I've gone on a binge lately, re-reading the Republic/Imperial Commando series by Karen Traviss.  Just finished Order 66 again.

The Life-changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo.

 

My life isn't changed so much, but I definitely have a lot less junk in my possession.

Hey that's actually a really good book!!

 

I finally read Coraline, because I wanna do some illustrations for it.

 

Actually, anyone here with a Goodreads account? Add me up!

[TheLastCandle]

Throne of the Crescent Moon by Saladin Ahmed. A magical romp reminiscent of the best of the Arabian Nights which easily became one of my favorite fantasy novels in recent memory. Very much looking forward to the next book.

It really is. I'm trying to get my mother to read it because my parents have SO MUCH STUFF.

[Telluride]

My last read was First and Only by Dan Abnett, one of the Gaunt's Ghosts novels. Been trying to go through the Gaunt's Ghost books so I can then pick up the Ciaphas Cain novels next.

[Juromaro]

I just finished reading the Eon and Eona series by Allison Goodman http://www.alisongoodman.com.au/darkdaysclub.com/eon-and-eona/ - About a group of Boys/Men chosen by Elemental Dragons that are basically the care takers of the world, and this girl Eona pretends to be a boy so she can take the trial to see if she's chosen by the Dragon who's power is currently up for the year. Good story so I won't spoil the rest.

 

Also last week I finished a real good gamer book called "Ready Player One" by Ernest Cline https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready_Player_One alot of 80's pop culture that any nerd would love.

I got a signed copy of Games Wizards Play by Diane Duane.

 

I only read it today sadly because she ended up sending it from Ireland to my billing address and not the shipping address ; ;

Not necessarily the full thing, just yet. Being a compilation of stories...Does one of them count?

 

The last story I read in it was The Hound, which is famously the first story of Lovecraft's to mention the "Necronomicon". It was inspired by a visit Lovecraft made to the Flatbush Reformed Church in Brooklyn.

I'm currently halfway through Memory of Light, the last book in the Wheel of Time series. I've been mainlining the whole series at work since about July and it's been wonderful.

 

Prior to that, I reread Rainbow Six. Prior to THAT, I read a fantastic book called Superposition, which deals with quantum entanglement and string theory, kind of. It's sort of a horror book, but it's really neat.

[Martiallais]

The last book I read was Transformers: Retribution and prior to that was Gears of War: The Slab.

 

Ssssh stop judging me. Currently working my way through House of Leaves now that I've got a renewed interest in it after being hung up on a puzzle for a bit.

[Dogberry]

In the Dust of This Planet by Eugene Thacker. I liked it. Horror and philosophy, etc. Probably going to read the next book in the series, but I'm going to probably read something lighter first. Probably book from the Culture series next.

[Rowe]

I read The Martian.

 

Then I went to see the movie.

 

I'm pretty hardcore.

The last book I read was 'The Arsenal of Democracy' which was about the American rearmament effort during WWII and the3 Ford company in particular. It was really good!

 

The last book I listened to (on audible) was the 'Bands of Mourning' which is one of the Mistborn sequels. It was also really good.
