I LOVE Moorcock, haven’t read that one yet though.

I’m almost finished with The Three-Body Problem for my sci-fi book club. Then I’ve also got The Institute going and About Time 3: The Unauthorized Guide to Doctor Who. But I’m also in the middle of Captain Britain: Siege of Camelot and Doc Savage: Glare of the Gorgon. And still about ten books to go complete my reading challenge this year.

I am enjoying this collection of short stories but I would not recommend reading it unless you have also read his two London novels [book:Mother London
and King Of The City as some of the stories include characters from these novels.

Rick | 1767 comments I’ve got both of those, still have a couple of others to get to before those come up to the top of the stack. I’ll just add the anthology to the bottom of the stack. ;) Too many books, too little time (left).

I’m also reading through the graphic novel series The Woods right now. Really interesting story and a lot of fun characters.

Bill | 465 comments I'm about to start in on A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. I've heard & read nothing but good things about it so I'm hoping it's not as daunting as it appears!

That’s interesting. I’ve heard and read mostly bad things about it, so I’m eager to see what you have to say about it.

Alexandra (little_alex) | 591 comments I just finished Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators. Well-paced, read a bit like a spy novel. Not very good title, since the part about the tabloid is small... Unless he meant to accuse NBC employing the tactic as well?

The bits with Jonathan were quite sweet, and proposal through a book, whoohoo.

Me too. Or rather I did love it. I’m reading his The Institute right now.

I thought I would start The Summer We Got Free by Mia McKenzie, but then switched to Langston Hughes.

Palace Walk by Naguib Mahfouz


message 28: by Naughty (new)

Naughty Sparkle (naughty_sparkle) | 1 comments I'm reading Eeli. So far it has been better than the previous entries, but it is ruined by the fact it is part of a not good series. It might take a nose dive, like the last book did.
I do not enjoy the series but I have the books and the completionist in me says I need to read it to read something else.
