And what’s on your to read shelf?
Currently re-reading Matter by Iain M. Banks. The Culture books just get better and better as they go on.
Reading “A Tale of Two Cities” for the first time.
recently finished:
- Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
- last night in Montreal by Emily St John Mandel
Currently reading the haunting of Hill house by Shirley Jackson
Good Omens is so freaking good. There’s a kick starter going on right now for a fully illustrated graphic novel version.
Oh my! I had no idea. Thank you!
I just finished Tatouine by Jean-Christophe Réhel.
I LOVED this book. It was written from the first person POV and tons of pop culture references but I was really sucked in and enjoyed the read.
I’ve recently stopped reading book three of the Malazan series and don’t actually know why tbh. Kinda bored me after binging the first two books.
I started the Way Of Kings just yesterday though. What a weird world Brandon Sanderson crafted there.
Wish the best
Currently reading Man in the High Castle, and also Scythe since I saw it on a friend’s bookshelf and am always looking for something new to read while waiting for more malazan books (can’t commit to another reread right now).
I have 5-20 minutes between calls at my work, so I’ve had plenty of time to sneak in some books on the clock.
I’ve been rereading through the Cosmere, so Mistborn eras 1+2, Warbreaker, and I’m currently reading Elantris.
To-read is Tress of the Emerald sea, then I probably should go for a non-fiction book to feel more enightened
Check out The Emperor’s Soul also by Sanderson. It’s short but IMO is his best work.
Ohh I’m currently reading Tress after finishing the Silo saga, it’s been a fun read so far!
The Three Body Problem saga, I just finished the first book. I’m enjoying this as much as I enjoyed DUNE
Good stuff! Im reading the third book now. The saga is outstanding sci-fi and I very much recommend it. It is close to being as good as Foundation - however it is still far from being as great as Dune imo.
The author is just brilliant at pacing a novel.

I finished Three Body not too long ago. A lot of people didn’t like the fan-written 4th one as much. But if you like Dune, I think you might enjoy it. Cause shit gets weird.
Just finished the first three books of the Locked Tomb trilogy by Tamsin Muir (4th book out soon lol). Great storyline, interesting concept of Necromancers in space.
Also just finished Snow Crash by Neil Stephenson. Fun book kinda short.
Currently reading Altered Carbon by Richard K Morgan.
I’m halfway through reading Nona the Ninth right now and I’m absolutely loving it! Her perspective is hilarious
Fairytale by Stephen King
I read Fairytale a few months ago. Really enjoyed the slow burn.
Good to hear , King does a good slow burn.I’m just at the “game practice” don’t want to spoil anything but you know where I am.
Reading Stalking Darkness, by Lynn Flewelling. 2nd book of the Nightrunner series. Up next is the rest of the series! :P This is my 2nd read through. After that, I’m planning to re-reading a few Mercedes Lackey books before finally reading the newest one. Might just hop into the newest one if I get impatient though.
“Echoes of the Great Song” - David Gemmell. A rare standalone scifi/fantasy novel. I read Legend a few years ago and enjoyed it so much that I’m now reading every book Gemmell ever wrote. Saving the Troy books for last (appropriately). Though some are better than others there’s not a single bad book in his entire oeuvre.
The Dawn of Everything by Davids Graeber and Wengrow
