Still reading Your Money Or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin. There are some interesting points in it, though not implementing anything right now, just reading the book.
Finished volume 7 of Jujitsu Kaisen manga, by Gege Akutami.
Started The Passage by Justin Cronin. Saw it recommended here a few times, and ordered the trilogy, books are so much longer than I expected. Each book can probably be divided in 2 and still be on slightly thicker end of average book size. I am still at the start, only 60-70 pages yet. Getting a slight feel of Stephen King books. Let’s see how it progresses.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?
A regular reminder about our Book Bingo, and it’s Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.
Finally started On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers, which has been on my TBR for ages, patiently waiting for me to be in the mood for pirates. I can already see how it inspired the Monkey Island games.

Finished The Spy Who Came in from the Cold by John le Carré. Solid Cold War espionage plot written during that era, with George Smiley from Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy involved in the background. Like To Catch a Thief, it has some slurs and a questionably large age-gap relationship, but that’s not terribly surprising. Worth a look if you like stories about intelligence services playing human chess.
