Hey Beehaw (and friends)! What’re you reading?

Previously I had these thread labelled as monthly threads, but I have had an incredibly busy few months and had not been able to keep up with it. So this is now going to be a general sticky that will be replaced “every so often” when the previous thread gets overly full :)

Novels, nonfiction, ebooks, audiobooks, graphic novels, etc - everything counts!

    finishing up The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk. very long, and I struggled for the first half of it with keeping track of the dizzying array of characters, but overall pretty good. I enjoyed Primeval and Other Tales by her much more, however.

    next up will be Soldiers and Kings by Jason DeLeon (Land of Open Graves, his previous book, was a goddamn gut punch, and expecting the same from this one - both deal with migration at the southern US border). also looking forward to James by Percival Everett.

    One of the “I. Inquisitor” series. It is edgy Polish dark fantasy (not translated into English).

    Just started Blindsight. I’m really enjoying some sci-fi with religious undertones. Hyperion is in the mail for my next one.

    Working my way through Anne McCaffrey’s Pern novels again. Read them first as a child and it’s lovely being back in that world again
