I've been re-reading Georgette Heyer mysteries precisely because they are not very compelling, and I want stuff to read at night which I don't mind putting aside as soon as I get sleepy. I'll probably donate them after Christmas.

I bought a lot of books I really want to read this year, but aside from a few that were mostly sequels or series, they are just making my TBR pile grow ever bigger. I'm hoping to get a few of those read in January which is traditionally fairly quiet at work, and February, when I am taking some leave. High on the list are:
Terry Pratchett - The Shepherd's Crown, which I have been putting off because I don't want to live in a world where there is no more Pratchett to read
Mira Grant - Into the Drowning Deep
Omar Musa - Here come the Dogs
Cixin Liu - The Three Body Problem - friends lent me the whole trilogy several months ago and I still haven't started

Library!

Due to a recent car acquisition, i am now able to go to the local library! I haven't been yet but i am super excited. I don't have anything specific in mind but I haven't been in a few years.

I don't have much time to read right now because it's end of the semester so everything's coming due.
When I do get reading time I've been mainly reading fanfics over at asianfanfics.com. In professionally published work, I'm reading A River in Darkness (memoir about life in North Korea), season 3 of Tremontaine, and Lilih's Bt/i> by Octavia Butler.

Many new books have arrived in the mail -- I intend to progress at least one of these, and something already started!

What I have been reading is a somewhat random selection of ebooks that I have been acquiring from Bookbub/Instafreebie/the like (as well as some I've purchased) over the course of the year. Recommended are Sheila Finch's "Reading the Bones"; Sami Shah's "Fire Boy" (sequel "Earth Boy" is on the aforementioned pile of new books); Tansy Rayner Roberts "Fake Geek Girl" and "Please Look After This Angel".

over the past few months, I've mainly focused on getting caught up with the following series:

• the In Death series by J.D. Robb
• the Cara Gillian series by Diana Rowland
• October Day by Seanan McGuire
• Kate Daniels by Ilona Andrews

I'm currently reading Caliban's War, the second book in the Expanse series by James S.A. Corey.

I'm really excited about this post!

The last books I finished were The Bees by Laline Paull and Ice by Anna Kavan. Right now I'm reading American Wolf. Not sure what's next, there are so many books that I want to read.
