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?

my local library doesn't have more than the first dungeon crawler carl, and Google play only has the second so I haven't finished the series but I love it. princess donut is the GOAT.

I read John dies at the end a few years ago and didn't much care for it

I warn you. do not attempt to watch the movie. it is hot garbage.

    Dungeon Crawler Carl is an Amazon/Audible exclusive. If the book is listed anywhere else, it’s a stolen copy.

    Now, that a new publisher is putting out new editions of the books, I’m hoping more libraries get rights to the text.

    The audiobook, which I HIGHLY recommend, will always be an Audible exclusive. The narrator is re-recording a full immersion version with a full cast and sound effects, but they release those in episodic format, rather than whole books.

    Suggestions for when your library doesn’t have something that you want to read: Check to see if your library offers it as an ebook. And if not, see if they can get a physical copy for you through inter-library loan.

    I always do e-books, using the Libby app to checkout and the Kindle app as a reader for its features. There are loads of good books out there for me to read, so if what I want isn't available that's fine I'll just find something else. Thank you for the suggestion :)
