Holidays are over! Happy New Year!

I didn't get much to read over the holidays, but I finished The Black Company by Glen Cook. The story was interesting but the way it is written made it hard for me to read. Still, going to continue with the trilogy and see if second book is any better in that regard.

Currently reading Dead Beat by Jim Butcher. Loving the book. The series just keeps getting better and better.

What about you? What have you been reading or listening?

Just finished up American Gods by Neil Gaiman and started the Jack Reacher novels by Lee Child. I’m most of the way through Killing Floor.

How are you liking the Killing Floor? I have been meaning to start the series but couldn't find the starting book at my local bookstore.

So far so good. I have the bad habit of picking up a book or series to compare/contrast with the show or movie and IMO if you enjoy Reacher, you’ll enjoy the books and vice versa.

Reacher the show? Or the Tom Cruise movie? Cause I have only seen the Tom Cruise movie, and I don't recall too much of that.

The show. I’ve honestly never seen the movie. Ol’ Centertooth is too small to be Jack Reacher.

Heh, yeah, I read about that.
