    I have stacks of new books to read but as I’ve mentioned before I can’t seem to concentrate long enough to read a book.
    ....
    If this goes on much longer I’ll need to buy picture books.

    This was how I was feeling, so I roped a friend into creating a book club. The structure has helped my stay with books and finish them.

    I read this a year ago but it immediately popped in my head for some reason… Don’t know if you are looking for fiction only but this 👌

    Just finished John Scalzi's The Consuming Fire and Miniatures. I don't like his short stories as much as his novels.

    I just finished Meru, and I'm on to some faster, lighter reads -- Kris Michaels' Hollister series, and her Guardian Defenders series. I never used to think I would like action romances, but then I started reading Lexi Blake and Kris Michaels, and they changed my opinion on the subject.

    I read Kaiju Preservation Society not too long ago and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to when Starter Villain comes out.

    That's next ish on my list. I really enjoy Scalzi.

    Finished Councillor by LE Modesitt yesterday ( had not read the first) but it was pretty good.

    Read about half of Jayne Anne Kretz's The Vanishing, the whole time feeling like it seemed really familiar... finally, after predicting what would happen next for the 10th time, I concluded I HAVE read it and quit. Though, her books are pretty easy to predict...

    My son gave me this to read months ago, never did.
    Yesterday evening my internet went down so I finally read it.
    🥱
    I expected more.

    I just finished The Splendid and the Vile. Great book about Winston Churchill during the blitz raids on London.

    Harbinger by Wen Spencer...about six books into the Tinker/Elfhome series. Spencer is a good read.
