Finished Starsight by Brandon Sanderson. Second book in Cytoverse series. Loved the way the series progressed, though didn't liked the post-ending much. Going to start the novella soon.

Started Three Days to Never by Tim Powers. It's a standalone sci-fi. Don't remember who recommended Tim Powers or when, but he was mentioned in my list, so got couple of his books. I have just started the book, something is happening, but I am not sure what, so no idea what to think about it yet. Let's see how it turns out.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening lately?

My book club is going to discuss Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte this week. I finished pretty early, so I've been listening to The Gone World by Tom Sweterlitsch. It's also standalone sci-fi, though it's doing the thing I don't so much like where it oversimplifies some of its key tech. The prologue was fantastic!

Seconding the excellent prologue in The Gone World. I had a couple of quibbles with the rest of the book, but overall really liked it when I read it. Hope you end up liking it, too!
