My goal today is to finish those 2 so I can start Bout of Books tomorrow with a clean slate!

Read so far
- good novel but felt rushed in certain aspects. Overall the duology was a good read
- the usual Scalzi which is definitely full of current events
- the hype for this is accurate; so good
- weird to have f-bombs in this but the exploration of murder in Roman Empire was good
- not as bad as reviews made me expect. Jazz is unlikeable and yes welding is discussed quite a bit, but the geek in me loved the Easter eggs about lunar landings
- average historical mystery
- I loved this book, the characters, the magic realism was so well executed

Oooh can't wait!

'Tis a Mystery to be solved!:))

I'm not sure if I haven't been in the mood to sit and read (I've been doing pretty well with audiobooks while working on things) or if I'm just procrastinating because the books I want to read are really long; despite repeatedly reminding myself to pick shorter one.
I also don't know why I'm on such a nonfiction kick lately.
