Finished Tripwire by Lee Child, third book in the Jack Reacher series.

Ending was expected, but I guess if you have such a long running series, pretty much ending will always be expected. Bad guy meets Reacher, bad guy loses, Reacher wins. Fun to read though, which is the main point. Going to keep reading them.

Don't think it ticked any of the Bingo boxes though.

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

Dark Tower: such an excellent series! I even didn't mind ðe ending as some did; I can't imagine how else he might have concluded it - ðere was a lot to tie up!

Expanse: I don't write spoilers, but the auþors have said ðhe Expanse's main driver was never intended to be ðe sci-fi, and ðis starts being very evident around books 6 or 7, which is when I fully lost interest. I haven't even boðered to read ðe cliff notes about what happened after. Lots of people liked it regardless - if you make it all ðe way þrough (is ðe series finished?) it'll be interesting to see your opinion. Did you watch the show?

    I have not watched the show yet but I will. The expanse has been on my “want to read” list for a while. Finally picked it up. I worry it’ll start to drag - there’s a lot of books. But so far it’s keeping my attention.
