What's everyone reading this week? Are you loving it? Liking it? Find it meh?

I'm in the middle of two books right now. Legendborn by Tracy Deonn is a contemporary fantasy revolving around King Arthur. It's absolutely amazing so far. It's the first book of a series, though, and I already know the cliffhanger is not going to be pleasant.

My second book is Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. The Martian is probably one of my favorite science fiction books but I wasn't as big a fan of Weir's second book, Artemis, which I didn't think played to his strengths as a writer. But with Project, he's gone back to his roots (so to speak). Weir knows how to write captivating technobabble and science experiments as well as intriguing characters. I'm 200 pages in and honestly, I just want to sit and finish this book in one go (alas, there is work).

What are you reading?

Ann (ann-fracturedfiction) | 516 comments I've recently started reading Agatha Christie's Lord Edgware Dies (#9 in the series). I also want to read The Duke and I (the first Bridgerton novel) as well as A Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy by Mackenzi Lee (2nd in the series- I think you would like it, Joanna). Then I'll start on Boyfriend Material.

I already have Project Hail Mary on hold and am putting Legendborn on hold too. Or might it fit in with my planned end of the year re-read of The Once and Future King and the Mists of Avalon? Maybe I'll wait until then for Legendborn.

(Not stalking your reading. Not too much, anyway.) :D

Suzanne (suzannesnowden) | 9 comments I'm reading four things right now. Three on Overdrive- The Hobbit, The Little Prince, and The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro. And I'm on the second in Victoria Aveyard's Red Queen series.


Agatha’s Reading Room📚 Hey everyone! I’m new here but I’m currently reading “The wife upstairs”. I just finished “The Last Flight” and “The Vanishing half” both I HIGHLY recommend!

Welcome, Agatha! We're so happy to have you! I've heard nothing but great things about "The Vanishing Half;" it's definitely on my tbr.

Hahaha. Stalk my reading all you want. I always find the best book by seeing what everyone else is reading.

I love the first book in that series! I'm waiting for book 3 to come out before I read "A Lady's Guide". I think it should be out in September. :D
