Finished Defiant by Brandon Sanderon, fourth and final book of the Cytoverse series. Really enjoyed it. Recommended to all sci-fi fans. Though do keep it in mind that it is a bit YA-ish, so if you aren’t a fan of that, you may not love it.
After that, read couple of books I got for the kid. Mainly read them to stay in the loop of what he is reading and how he is liking it. Also, it’s fun to discuss books with him.
First was, the first book in The Breakfast Club Adventures, The Beast Beyond the Fence by Marcus Rashford (The footballer) and Alex Falase-Koya. The protagonist of the series is also named Marcus Rashford, so I am assuming it’s named after him.
Second was Accidental Trouble Magnet by Zanib Mian, first book in Planet Omar series. We are reading her newer series Meet the Maliks and liked that, so started her previous series too.
Currently reading Killing Floor by Lee Child, first book in Jack Reacher series. Before that my only Reacher knowledge is from Tom Cruise movies, so enjoying the book now.

Interesting! I heard some people say Crossroads was the worst of them. I’m close to halfway through this book and so far nothing has really happened. I will say though that the slog in general isn’t as bad as I was warned.
I don’t have much of a memory of Crossroads so maybe it was a slog too. Probably. I do remember Knife of Dreams being a sudden change of pace that moved along fairly briskly, because Jordan was dying at the time. It was a welcome change, but it honestly pissed me off that this joker had been faffing around for 3,000+ pages on purpose and could have written a better story anytime he wanted. That still pisses me off, actually. If Sanderson hadn’t provided a brisk and serviceable trilogy to end the series I doubt I would have finished it.
