I love seeing the variety of reading material y'all are sharing :)
I'm still plugging away at The Maltese Falcon; a few minutes every night, I should be done soon. Compared to my (admittedly faded) recollection of the movie adaptation, the book Spade is harder to like and to root for. Which is probably as it should be: Sam Spade is, of course, very much the embodiment of the film noir protagonist, almost an antihero.
Also snuck in a few MCU/Avengers fanfic stories. It's a fandom I enjoy reading in without feeling any kind of compulsion to write in, which is nice :)
