I almost forgot the weekly thread again, so just putting it up, will post my updates later.

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

"Twelve Months", by Jim Butcher, book 18 in The Dresden Files. Been waiting over 5 years for this new installment. At least the next one is about a year out.

    I just read it as well, and was left feeling surprisingly "meh" about it at the end. Maybe because I didn't love the previous book and there was a long wait for this one?
    I'm not sure, but i'm not excited for the next book. I'll read it anyway, but it's a bit of a come-down as this series used to be one of my favorites.

    Honestly, a 6 year wait between installments really breaks up the narrative flow and kills hype. I'm at the verge of saying I won't read any more until the whole series is completed. IF it gets completed, since there's at least 5 more books on the way (apparently).
