I'm currently working on two books. The first is Gunmetal Gods by Zamil Akhtar. The genre is Epic fantasy, it is very fast paced like break neck which is both good and bad. On one had something is always happening on the other I have no time to digest the content. I'd say it's entertaining but wouldn't say it's amazing at the moment. If you like quick popcorn style books go ahead you may enjoy it.

The second book I'm listening to is Restaurant at the End of the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, genre is Scifi satire comedy. We've all heard about Hitchhiker's and it's sequels I'm just finally working through the books. I recommend it but the author's humor seems jaded which is perfect for me lol.

I loooved Hitchhiker's Guide! I never got around to reading the follow ups though. I'll have to add those to my "To Read" list.
