That’s way too specific and recent. I am intrigued but bewildered

Also checking for narrators y’all have mentioned. Adjoa Andoh, the best part of Bridgerton, is fantastic with Pride and Prejudice and also does Ann Leckie’s books, as well as many books I don’t know but am now tempted to listen to…

I am halfway through The Three Body Problem, and I like it. The characters and their stories, as we're getting them, are interesting to me, and the way they are unfolding the mystery of what's going is keeping my attention.

I also have seven books on deck from the library... the holds didn't quite space out the way I had anticipated. That's OK!

Oh, well, and I started Fifth Business, too, but TTBP is due on Friday, so I am hopping to it. No renewals left.

I watched the series on Netflix and loved it. The book is on my too-long TBR list.

Jeff Hays is a phenomenal audiobook narrator. I'm just listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl series but he has narrated other books. It looks like mostly he has done LitRPG and fantasy books but he is so good. Sometimes his female characters sound too much alike but the main characters are all very distinctive and I forget that he is Mordecai, Carl, Donut and Katia.

Finished Three Body Problem -- thumbs up. I will probably get the next one, too. For whatever reason, I thought the author was a woman until I saw his picture at the very end. Random facts.

I started in on The Crying of Lot 49, but I don't have the fortitude to pay attention to that right now. It may also just not be my thing.

Now I've cracked open the one with Stairs in the title. City of Stairs? That's feeling more my speed right now. I didn't feel like going back to Fifth Business just yet.

I really liked the City of Stairs and its sequels. For some reason it felt very post-WWII for me. Lots of espionage and geopolitical upheaval in the aftermath of war.

I read The Crying of Lot 49 for my freshman rhetoric class and loooooved it. It was the first book that was that kind of weird that I had come across, and for a class, blew my mind. Reading Pynchon tends to make me paranoid, though. I've had Against the Day in my TBR for almost a decade but it's still daunting and there are so many other books...

For example: New KJ Charles is out and thanks to the magic of pre-ordering is already on my phone, but can I ignore work and spend all day reading it as would clearly be best for everyone? No, I cannot.

I am only partway into The Change but I am really liking it so far. Thanks for mentioning it, Amy and Dana!

I liked The Raven Scholar a whole lot and am very glad that it's the first in a series because I want to learn everything about this world

I just won an auction to be part of a virtual kaffeeklatsch session with Lois McMaster Bujold!

Susan, so cool!!!
