Finished The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy! Finally!
It was interesting read, but too long. Too much back story and details that could have been condensed quite a bit. As it is, I didn’t like the fist quarter, second quarter was okay, third was interesting, and really enjoyed the last one.
Still one book remaining in the trilogy, but need a break, will come back to after a little while.
Read some more stories from The Complete Fiction of H. P. Lovecraft.
Now reading The Crystal Shard by R. A. Salvatore. First book of The Icewind Dale Trilogy, and The Legend of Drizzt / Forgotten Realms series (publication order).
It’s my first Drizzt, and first D&D novel and has been on my wishlist for a very long time. Just started it so can’t really say much about it, but enjoying it so far.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I am slowly going through The Wandering Inn. Without spoiling things I’m loving the utility of a door.
Really enjoying this series, too. (wanderinginn.com) Amazing amount of output from the author, and while there’s no way you can enjoy every plot thread (I just don’t care for Flos), it’s amazing how often I get excited when a new chapter starts from a new perspective.
Personally, I’m also working on “When the Clock Broke” https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/195790601-when-the-clock-broke and “This America of Ours” https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58311951-this-america-of-ours
Both are interesting reads, but “America” is definitely largely lighter material …(wild, given it’s about McCarthy-era politics)
