A day late, but better late than never!

Finished Proven Guilty by Jim Butcher. Book 8 of Dresden Files. Loving how the series is progressing. How the characters are growing, and how the stakes keep getting higher and higher.

Currently Reading Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson. Book 3 of Cytoverse / Skyward series. It continues from after Book 2, and we haven't come across the events of the novellas yet. I am interested to see how they will cover those.

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

From Manufacturing Consents to Sodom and Gomorrah to The Riddler. That's a nice combination 😀

Which one are you liking the most?

I think I like Sodom and Gomorrah the least. Proust's view on homosexuality seems partial.

Manufacturing Consent is worth reading for its relevance. Two serious wars are going on and the media is still using the same formulas.

The Riddler is fun to read.
