What Are You Reading Now? Pt 2. Showing 5,551-5,600 of 10,436

[Nancy]

I am reading Obsidio.

[Aditya]

Finished Soul Circus by George P. Pelecanos. Pelecanos writing is too niche to attract anyone other than Washington natives or fans of really gritty crime fiction like me. Rating - 3/5.

Connelly is at the top of his game during the start of his career, you can stick with him. Most of the early Bosch books are good though sadly the series like many others become a tale of diminishing returns past first 8-9 entries. And if you are looking for police procedurals I would also recommend Tana French's In the Woods, it was a great read.

[Rhian]

Aditya I read in the woods I absolutely hated it ha, I will read the scarecrow soon I think I'll stick to the McEvoy books for now

[Aditya]

I had seen that French could be polarizing but The Scarecrow was disappointing compared to The Poet. The best Connelly books are Bosch #3- #6, The Concrete Blonde to Angel's Flight, The Poet and The Lincoln Lawyer. You might try one of them later if u want to. Hope you enjoy Scarecrow more than me.

[Rhian]

Cheers Aditya I'll try it before I buy any more a lot seem to agree with you so I won't be rushing out to buy all his books

[Sabine]

I've just started reading The Force. It's a little slow to start, but I'm expecting it to pick up pace soon.

Just checked it out, bears strong resemblance to The Shield, my favorite TV series. I will surely pick up something by this author.

[Nicole]

About halfway through Strange Weather by Joe Hill. It was last month's non-King read but I didn't get a chance to read it until now. First Joe Hill book!

[Patrick]

Currently reading Dreadful Tales by Richard Laymon I think these stories have a tales from the crypt tv series feel.

I just finished Strange Weather last night. Trying to find my way back to the discussion thread so I can post some comments. Overall I liked it a lot. Especially the last book - Rain. I'll have a review and some more comments shortly.

I've seen the movie Horns and didn't know at the time that it was based off Joe Hill's book, so yeah I might have to read it.

Never saw the movie, but I thought the book was wonderful.

[Rhian]

wasn't too impressed with the The Girl in the ice by Robert Bryndza 3☆ nothing special, now I'm going to read The Dry by Jane Harper I've seen loads of recommendations for this one

[J.J.]

I'm about to finish reading Garth Nix

[Linda]

I'm about to start Night Passage by Robert B. Parker.

[Tim]

I'm a huge fan of Wheel of Time. I've read all 14 books twice and the audiobook once. I hope you're enjoying it.

the next 4 books you need to finish the series start to escalate then the last 3 books by Brandon Sanderson(finished that last 3 books because RJ passed away) are amazing everything starts to come together so stick with the series, totally worth the finish.

[J.J.]

I'm enjoying it enough to get this far anyway. I'm at the point where I have to keep going to see how it all plays out, even though the pacing is really starting to get to me.

Yeah books 6 through 9 is like that, slow pace and a lot of gibber gabber but all for a great cause. Hang in there and the last 3 books the pace will change up and then book 14 BAM. "keep on Keepin on" lol

I agree heartily, Aditya. I loved every single one of Tana French's six "Dublin Murder Squad" books, and I've given every last one of them an energetic 5-star rating. In some ways, I believe her most recent one, The Trespasser, is the best. But you can't go wrong no matter which one you read.

[Michael]

Reading Stott's "Apocalypse Hill". It's pretty clear whose style this guy has decided to embrace. It's a good story so far, unpredictable for sure.

I have just read the first three and have already given two of them 5 stars, hope to be catch up to Trespasser within a couple of months. Character fatigue does not set in as she keeps changing her protagonists, so I expect her to keep on being consistently great.

[Jessica]

I just finished reading The Hunger. It was recommended by Stephen King via social media, and was a phenomenal horror read! It is a retelling of the Donner party story. I highly recommend it!

Glad to hear a few people are reading The Chalk Man! I picked that book up last weekend and will likely dive in soon.

[Nancy]

I am reading Unbury Carol

[Andrew✌️]

I'm reading Fear, a compelling horror story by Hubbard.

[Linda]

I'm reading All By Myself Alone

[Murray]

Munich by Robert Harris

[Erin]

Dorothy Must Die

[Aditya]

Finished The Force by Don Winslow. An ambitious, well researched crime novel about corrupt cops reminiscent of LA Quartet and The Shield, it is not as exceptional as either but still a fine book in its own right. Rating - 4/5.

My review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

PS. It also got a glowing recommendation from King, so King fans will do well to check it out.

[Linda]

I'm about 30% into The Murder Stone by Louise Penny. Number 4 in the series of Chief Inspector Gamache.

[Kenneth]

Started Thomas F. Monteleone's Night of Broken Souls and Glenn Rolfe's LAND OF BONES .

[Nancy]

I started Infected last night.
