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?

When I worked in a startup, there was a guy who wanted "The Left Hand of Darkness" as his designation. The company didn't do it, but I do recall watching someone online with the same designation, don't remember who or which company.

Both great books btw! How are you liking The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue? I have seen V. E. Schwab mentioned many times in these threads but haven't had a chance to read her work yet.
