    I'm starting Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie. I'll see the movie when it comes out next week.

    And fun little thing - the copy I got from the library is so old it still has a pocket on the front page and stamped due dates.

    Still working my way through The Civil War: A Narrative, Vol. 3: Red River to Appomattox, Diplomacy, and Bleak House, but I've added The Old Religion in a New World: The History of North American Christianity and The Witching Hour to my currently reading pile.

    Finishing up Big Little Lies. It's a little fluffy for me, so back to the dark thrillers after this.

    I just started this one and it's wonderful so far! I also recently finished Alice Hoffman's The Rules of Magic and highly recommend it.

    Words of Radiance, the second book in the Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson. I'm looooving it! Wonderful high-fantasy books. Great characters, great action, great world-building.

    I'm currently reading American Gods by Neil Gaiman! One of my favourite books.

    I recently listened to the American Gods audiobook on Audible and it was amazing. It's narrated by the actors from the show and they do a wonderful job.

    Revenger, by Alastair Reynolds. Pretty good so far, I'm only about 50 pages in, but I like his sci-fi generally.

    I read Bonk, I love her writing style! The footnotes cracked me up more than I care to admit.

    Yeah thats actually how im reading it or I guess listening, I think just because it wasnt my normal genre it took awhile to get into it definitely holds my interest now. I have a long commute so I listen to audio books on my drive

    This is the first of her books I have read. I'll have to check it out. I've already made a lengthy book list from this thread.

    I love this thread, so I'm bumping it!

    "Alpha" by Jasinda Wilder. I read "Falling into you" a long time ago and I really liked it. We'll see about this one, the storyline doesn't sound that promising.
