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?

The Middleman by Olen Steinhauer. This is a new author to me. It's about a group of left-wing activists who suddenly disappear and go off-grid. A lady FBI agent has been monitoring them for a while, even though there's no evidence they intend violence. Well, things happen, people die, and the surviving members are officially labeled terrorists. Anyway, I have about 100 pages left and some very suspicious characters haven't yet had their involvement adequately explained. If it finishes strong, I'll add Mr. Steinhauer to my list of authors I would read another book by.
