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

    Ironically, it’s a bit more dry than I expected it to be. But reading about the cultural and historical impacts of beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and Coca-Cola through the ages was pretty enlightening. I am on the final segment now.

    Re-reading the first book I wrote, Dragon Born, as I get ready to do a final round of edits to my sequel. I'm hoping to make sure I didn't inadvertently add some incorrect reference or logical conundrum.

    I can't hardly wait till it's out!!!!!!!!!!

    The Girl In Room16 by Eva Sparks. - I have not read any of her books. It got my attention on the first page so I think it will be good.

    Kindle: David Hough - Prestwick (Danger in the Sky Book 1)

    Physical Book: Betty Tottell - All Four Engines Have Failed

    Because of my sensory issues I struggle with holding a physical book for too long, that's why I moved onto the Kindle (iPad app) a few years ago, but I really wanted to read All Four Engines Have Failed, however, it has never been digitised, so it's physical book or nothing in that case - it is very rare book & I really struggled to get a copy of it, but now I have it I will treasure it.

    Prestwick is a fictional story of an air incident, but I'm not a fan of fiction unless it is about something I'm genuinely interested in, & I am a self-confessed aviation geek, so I have to read all three books in the series.

    I have 2 going

    The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson

    White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America by Nancy Isenberg

    I always seem to have 2 books on the go, I think for me it's because of the kind of things I read, sometimes they get very heavy & deep, so I then have a second book on the go which is a bit lighter & not so involved, or complex 😆

    I'm into political history, aviation, nuclear energy & stories of real-life triumph, my hubby used to say "What depressing story of disasters, mass genocide & civil unrest are you reading about at the moment?" 🤣😂🤣

    Since Uni I usually can't stand reading physical books anymore without falling asleep. So for me it's mostly audio books these days.
    Current book is: Crossroads of twilight by Robert Jordan, book 10 in the Wheel of Time series.

    I love this fantasy series. I've read it in Swedish and English and also listened to the series at least 4 times now and still find new things to discover.

    I gave up after the 7th installment. I got put off by her personal life getting in the way, I felt it went too much into romance and childcare than I could handle...

    I’m usually a little skeptical of popular fiction that you can buy in Target, but I think it’s just because I’m a snob and I need to get over myself. Plus I really enjoyed The Dutch House

    Not reading a book right now so I’m periodically reading passages of this and attempting to comprehend it.

    I've recently started reading, Monday's not coming. Its an amazing book i would 100 percent recommend it. Warning though it will make you cry but the book is about a strong topic that needs to be talked about.

    Mia might look like a Millennial but she was born yesterday. Emerging from a coma with short-term amnesia after an accident, Mia can’t remember her own name until the Siri assistant on her iPhone provides it. Based on her cool hairstyle (undercut with glamorous waves), dress (Prada), and signature lipstick (Chanel), she senses she’s wealthy, but the only way to know for sure is to retrace her steps once she leaves the hospital. Using Instagram and Uber, she arrives at the pink duplex she calls home in her posts but finds Max, a cute, off-duty postdoc supplementing his income with a house-sitting gig. He tells her the house belongs to JP, a billionaire with a chocolate empire. A few texts later, JP confirms her wildest dreams: they’re in love, Mia is living the good life, and he’ll be back that weekend.

    But as Mia and Max work backward through her Instagram and across Los Angeles to learn more about her, they discover an ugly truth behind her perfect Instagram feed, and evidence that her head wound was no accident. Did Mia have it coming? And if so, is it too late for her to rewrite her story?
