Finished Cold Days by Jim Butcher! (The 14th book in Dresden Files series.)

It was a wild ride! We are back to world shattering problems and trying to stop them. Just finished the book so haven't finalised which one to start next, but thinking about reading the next Mistborn book, 3rd one in Wax and Wayne era. Let's see.

Bingo Squares: None.

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

In a single week what would be the style for multiple comments, respond to your own or make a new one?

Anyways. I finished the compilation and looked at my SW list a little closer I still have 5 stories to finish of the Era, the Rebellion, and after that is, the New Republic. There is a trilogy called “The Bounty Hunter Wars” to lead off the former with.

The XWing books make up the start of the New Republic era with Rouge Squadron being the lead.

    Personally, I keep all the updates for next week's post, but nothing wrong with making another top level post, or if it's related to your previous post, replying to it.

    For instance, if your first comment is you finished a book, and then want to make a new comment about what you are starting, you can just make a new top-level comment. On the other hand, if you second comment is an update on the book mentioned in the first comment, then just reply to your post.

    Just my suggestions, there is no rule for this, so do as you like :-)

    Totally fair. Maybe there was a semi established structure I’ve missed. I’ve gotten yelled at for posting too often in other places -.- where no one else posts.

    Out of curiosity, how would you describe the Dresden Files or whatever it is, always looking for some newer stories as well to break stuff up.

    They are a pretty fun urban fantasy. Protagonist is a wizard that works as a "wizard for hire" like a private investigator, but as the story progresses the stakes keep getting bigger and bigger. Highly recommended, though beware that first 2 or so books are probably the weakest, though I enjoyed those too.
